Crush a bit, little bit, roll it up, take a hit
Feelin’ lit feelin’ light, 2 am summer night.
I don’t care, hand on the wheel, drivin drunk, I’m doin’ my thing
Rollin the Midwest side and out livin’ my life getting’ out dreams
People told me slow my road I’m screaming out fuck that
Imma do just what I want lookin’ ahead no turnin’ back
if I fall if I die know I lived it to the fullest
if I fall if I die know I lived and missed some bullets
CHORUS
I’m on the pursuit of happiness
and I know everything that shines
ain’t always gonna be gold
I’ll be fine once I get it, I’ll be good.
(x2)
VERSE 2:
Tell me what you know about dreamin’ dreamin’
you don’t really know about nothin’ nothin’
tell me what you know about them night terrors every night
5 am, cold sweats wakin’ up to the skies
tell me what you know about dreams, dreams
tell me what you know about night terrors, nothin’
you don’t really care about the trials of tomorrow
rather lay awake in a bed full of sorrow
CHORUS:
I’m on the pursuit of happiness
and I know everything that shines
ain’t always gonna be gold
I’ll be fine once I get it, I’ll be good
(x2)
(Guitar Solo)
CHORUS:
I’m on the pursuit of happiness.
I know everything that shines ain’t always gold
I’ll be fine once I get it, I’ll be good
I’m on the pursuit of happiness
And I know everything that shines
ain’t always gonna be gold, hey
I’ll be fine once I get it, yeah
I’ll be good
Pursuit of happiness, yeah
I don’t get it, I’ll be good
Happiness lives for those who cry, those who are hurt, those who have searched, and those who tried. For only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.
The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
If you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But if your focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you.
