[Intro]

(Me, I'm gonna find myself somebody, somebody new

I'm gonna find myself somebody, somebody new)

Let some sunlight in {*scratched: "It's yours!"*}

Yeah, open up the window, get some fresh air

Clean out all this shit right now

Uh-huh, that's what I'm talkin' about

That's what I mean right now


[Verse 1]

Today is different - I didn't go right for the weed

I went to the shower first, then I went to eat

Then I came home, sat down fully clothed

{A-A-A-Al-Al-Al-Al-Alchemist} Found this Alchemist beat, damn, this shit goes

I must be happy today

I must have chased the dark clouds away

I must have done something good that no one else saw

Like helped that lady cross the street (Your bag's about to fall)

Yeah, non-selfish acts of love

Not to get anything back, just to do it because (No)

I'm happy today, got no ulterior motives

I scratched my 22's but fuck it I'ma keep rollin' (it's nothing)

Can't shit get me down, no, sir

The world is mine, but I share (Okay, it's also yours)

The tour is mine, but I share (Okay, it's also yours)

The girl is mine, but I share (Okay, it's also yours)


[Chorus]

{"It's yours!"}

My life makes me (happy), my music makes me (happy)

I must of chased the dark clouds away

'Cause today I feel (happy.. happy)

My people make me (happy) my music makes me (happy)

'Cause I ain't always (happy)

I must of chased the dark clouds away (Yeah, feel this shit right here man)

Weatherman

{"It's yours!"}


[Verse 2]

Today is different - I didn't go right for the weed

I woke up, remembered all my dreams (Yeah)

Didn't feel anger, didn't wake up to a stranger

My new girl, my perfect stee'

Yeah, uhh, I stepped out to Venice Beach

From my front door, the shit's about a hundred feet

I seen the sun come down, reflection on the ground

That's my mom shining down on me (I love you)

L.A. is so crazy if you asking me

But here, they ain't harassing me (They ain't harassing me)

I musta done something good back in the day

Maybe Big Block told the hood, "Stay away from Ev"

Move on others instead (No)

I'm happy I ain't wound up dead; tell 'em all I'm here

And this ain't a life to play

It's a time to enjoy my day, and I'ma take you there


[Chorus]

"It's yours!"

My life makes me (happy) my music makes me (happy)

I must of chased the dark clouds away

'Cause today I feel (happy.. happy)

My people make me (happy) my music makes me (happy)

'Cause I ain't always (happy)

I must of chased the dark clouds away

I don't see none of that today


[Verse 3]

And it's mine... and I ain't happy-go-lucky

It's just today, the world don't feel ugly

And I speak the truth

Everytime I step my feet up inside the booth (No)

I woke up today, seen it rainin'

I love the sun, but I ain't complainin' (It's Cali)

Don't love my gun, but still I'm aimin'

That's the story of a kid in his youth


[Chorus]

My life makes me (happy) my music makes me (happy)

I must of chased the dark clouds away

'Cause today I feel (happy.. happy)

My people make me (happy) my music makes me (happy)

'Cause I ain't always (happy)

I must of chased the dark clouds away


[Outro]

Hey wait wait a minute Alchemist, stop this shit

I don't know what the fuck I was thinking about
