Soul Stainless - Happy (feat. Anna Lam) Lyrics

So go on, be happy, oh, be happy
Don't you know, be happy, oh, be happy
Don't you know that I'll be sad
Be happy, oh, be happy
Don't you go-go-go-go-go...

Yuh, everybody wanna be happy, happy
But I feel crappy, crappy
Everywhere people be laughing, laughing
I think they're acting, acting
Everybody gotta wear a mask for the world,
Everybody got they own rash to conceal
People too focused on the plastic and fake
To take out the daggum trash on the real
I don't even know how the world got here
I been on the globe twenty bitter-sweet years
I don't even know how the world got here
History is twisted by the winners I hear
Drowning in the liquor and the beer out here
Nobody cares 'bout your fears, keep it down
Everyone's a clown and we drowning in tears
I just wanna be the one to pierce with the sound
Why can't it be cool to be genuine again?
All people wanna do is fake smile and pretend
Y'all wanna tear me down cuz I'm winning again
And we held down cuz it takes time to ascend
Wanna swim then jump in, take a dive, people
Want to live, want to sin. Make ya mind up
If you wanna be at the top, you better climb up,
And you gotta do it 'fore your time up, ah yeah yeah
Want peace, better find some, ah yeah yeah
Aw nah, never mind us, ah yeah yeah
I will never let 'em sign us, ah yeah yeah
All these labels wanna pound you
And it's not just them, but I'm going viral
I gotta confess man, feels like I am prideful
Think I gotta flex man, flexing for the idols
Like am I the best or I'm just another loud fool?

So go on, be happy, oh, be happy
Don't you know, be happy, oh, be happy
Don't you know that I'll be sad-sad
Be happy, oh, be happy
Don't you go-go-go-go
Be happy, don't you know that I'll be...
So go on, be happy, oh, be happy
Don't you know-know-know-know, be happy
Oh, Don't you know that I'll be sad-sad
Be happy, oh, bee happy
Don't you go-go-go-go...
Be happy, oh, don't you know that...

What does it mean to be happy happy?
Do you feel that you're lacking, lacking?
Are you stuck in these bad dreams, bad dreams?
Man what does that mean? I'm over-reacting?
Awe man is that a fact?
Thinking this a game like a cabbage patch
Spent two long years now I rap the facts
No tatted tears but I smash the track
You asked me why I ain't rap for fun, why it
Gotta be a daggum rap sermon?
I just spit it how I live it, I'm a rap surgeon, and
I just wanna be happy, happy
This is my passi-passion. You mainly lacking action
I'm crazy whack, in fact son, I'm not that Son
That Son, that Son, that Son, that Son, that Son

That Son, wax on, that Son, wax on
That Son, wax on, that Son, wax on
That Son, that Son, that Son, that Son
That, that, that, that

Work on it, you gotta work on it, work on it
Can't be happy and lazy its crazy just
Work on it, work on it, you gotta
You can't be happy and lazy its crazy, so maybe just
Work on yourself
People love you why you hurtin' yourself?
Just put the work in you deserve to be blessed
You can feel it super deep in your chest
So work on it, work on it
Work on it, you gotta work on it, work on it
Can't be happy and lazy its crazy just
Work on it, work on it, you gotta
You can't be happy and lazy its crazy, so maybe just
Work on yourself
People love you why you hurtin' yourself?
Just put the work in you deserve to be blessed
You can feel it super deep in your chest
So work on it, work on it
