[Verse 1]
I am happy to be alive
Cause I know I could not be in a place that's filled with lies
Can't stand no quiet nights, why I fill up my glass with pride
Hopeful is all I know, how to keep me from silent cries
Nothing I can say
Facing all this pain in my way
I fight it every day
Why am I this way?
A n**** tryna maintain
I sit and tell myself, "okay"
We gotta find another way
You gotta find another way
You gotta find another way
[Hook x2]
Don't be so down, c'mon young homie
You'll be okay, you'll find real love
All of the stories, the hero gets lonely
Now is the time to show what you're made of
[Verse 2]
I am happy to be alive
Cause I know I could not be in a place so filled with lies
Can't stand no quiet nights, why I fill up my glass with pride
Hopeful is all I know, how to keep me from silent cries
Nothing I can say
Done running from the pain in my way
I'm fighting every day
Why am I this way?
A n**** tryna maintain
I sit and tell my self, "okay"
We gotta find another way
You gotta find another way
You gotta find another way
