(Intro)

Down in the dumps, I resurface

I feel like I out the worth in worthless

Take all my lumps with a purpose

Higher than a bird despite the burdens

(Chorus)

Things are not going my way

But I'm still waking up grateful everyday

Ok ok (uh huh)

Bad vibes come around but never stay

It won't kill you so don't take it to the grave

(Yeah yeah)

What can I say (hey)

Hey, things are not going my way

But I'm still waking up grateful everyday

Ok ok (uh huh)

Life is only what you make

It won't kill you so don't take it to the grave

That's what I say

(Bridge)

I cannot complain

Whether I'm crying or smiling through the pain

I survived anothеr day

As a child I was afraid of obligations

Now I recognize that time was not a phasе

(Verse 1)

But I'm great

And that instant validation ain't been hitting so I'll wait

Long as it takes

Keeping the faith

Can't hit the breaks

But I can't catch 'em either man shit

Thinking it's best for me to vanish

Slipping fast I need a damn grip

Plan B to C to plan X

Nothing a lil tequila can't fix

I find my place when I'm falling to pieces

And you best believe that it's tiring

Things looking bleak then I'm due for a peak

If I'm weakened at lease I'm inspiring

My time is money and talking is cheap

But I don't say a peep, I ain't buying in

I got people who love me and people who don't

But they still want a piece of the pie again

(Chorus)

Things are not going my way

But I'm still waking up grateful everyday

Ok ok (uh huh)

Bad vibes come around but never stay

It won't kill you so don't take it to the grave

(Yeah yeah)

What can I say (hey)

Hey, things are not going my way

But I'm still waking up grateful everyday

Ok ok (uh huh)

Life is only what you make

It won't kill you so don't take it to the grave

That's what I say

(Verse 2)

Super busy so it's crazy that I'm looking for a rush

I'm a waiter but i need a different bus

Cause tables aren't the way to get them bucks

Thankful for the woman that I love

And the homies always picking up

Late night corner store runs

Like do you wanna come just for fun

(Bridge)

I cannot complain

Whether I'm crying or smiling through the pain

I survived another day

As a child I was afraid of obligations

Now I recognize that time was not a phase
