I always wonder why We work hard and then we die This is the life we gotta live it is what it is But I can’t take this shit no more They never opened just closed the door This is what I am this is me On the pursuit to be happy On the pursuit to be happy On the pursuit to be happy I spent a lot of time reflecting on the past tense And then I realized that I never really had shit What I saw before my eyes are things I couldn’t imagine Like lies and broken ties and people lying in a casket How I coped was a design in my mind and was fantastic I became a weed fanatic even started smoking out of plastic It took my mind on a ride I buckled and then fastened I waited for the dose that broke nose of those who chose not to have it But like I said before that was the past tense There’s no need to worry this is now and that was back then But my life is coming undone like a cannibalistic savage I don’t even know where it begun this unbelievable habit I can’t even remember a time when I did not have it Offered by all of my friends of mine so I grabbed it Now thoughts slip so fast this fast life my mind can’t grasp it I smoke until I’m high, blow o’s do tricks backflips I always wonder why We work hard and then we die This is the life we gotta live it is what it is But I can’t take this shit no more They never opened just closed the door This is what I am this is me On the pursuit to be happy On the pursuit to be happy On the pursuit to be happy On this pursuit if happiness you gotta push you gotta go Going every which way on this yellow brick road I just need to go the way that feels close to home But the more I think about it the more I start to fold Wondering if it’ll always be like this until I’m old Wondering if there’s actually hell full of souls Or a heaven made of gold all story’s that they told Made me feel so bold but now I’m older and it’s like mold The house that was unified is now divided, and no one listens We just care about our money, our pride, and how our rides glisten But it can’t take no breaks I gotta go and keep it moving Because somebody might take my chance and I might go and fucking lose it This hard life of mine I swear to god a didn’t chose it I felt like there was a noose that tightened and could never be loosened And now I put my stress into my mother fucking music Put my life in the line just hoping somebody will use it I always wonder why We work hard and then we die This is the life we gotta live it is what it is But I can’t take this shit no more They never opened just closed the door This is what I am this is me On the pursuit to be happy On the pursuit to be happy On the pursuit to be happy
