Akira The Don - Life Is Good

Gratitude
On that 400-trillion-to-one thing
I'm grateful
Straight up, like I don't know what to say
Like, you might've not been born
Right?
Like, your dad could've been late
To the apartment that day
On some real shit
Like I don't think people would contextualize perspective like
What?
Like you're alive
Like you're alive
You could have been a tree
You could've been like, right
This is cool
Like, life is good

(Chorus)
Life is good
Like, it's cool to have one
It's cool to have one
Life is good
(This is cool!)
Life is good
(This is cool!)
Like, it's cool to have one
That's number one

One of the biggest things for me
Is being the bigger person
I hate conflict
Ironically, like
I'm a tough guy
When I have the mic and nobody else can talk
But in real life
I like, like happiness
And vibes and like
I've eaten shit my whole life
Kid stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from me
In the liquor store
Like, I found a way for him not to go to jail
For a long time, like, you know
Like, just being the bigger person
Has been a core principle of mine
Not valuing money over family and, like, happiness
Has been huge, fuck money
Like really
Fuck money
You cannot care about money more when you don't care
About what people think about your money
You know?

(Chorus)
Life is good
Life is good
Like, it's cool to have one
It's cool to have one
Life is good
(This is cool!)
Life is good
(This is cool!)
Like, it's cool to have one
That's number one

Patience
Holy shit, I'm gonna live four more full lives
And no matter how crazy what I think about right now is
And, like, what I wanna accomplish on or off the field
I got four fucking lives to do it
You guys know Grey Goose?
The guy who invented that is an entrepreneur
Invented it at 78
78 years old
You know
That's life
Like, you can do everything wrong
Have every dream you've ever had fucked up
Blame it on other people
The girl fucked it up
That injury fucked it up
Coach fucked it up
Blame everybody, have everything go wrong
Be 57 years old
And still have fucking 40 years to make it right
It's crazy, honestly
Like, if there was some crazy new drug
That I could, like, inject in you
That gave you perspective of time
That's the drug I would give you
Straight up

2x (Chorus)
Life is good
Life is good
Like, it's cool to have one
It's cool to have one
Life is good
(This is cool!)
Life is good
(This is cool!)
Like, it's cool to have one
That's number one

It makes you optimistic
People sitting here dwelling already
Dwelling already
“Fuck, I shouldn't have come to Rutgers”
“Fucking knew it”
Of course, there's people thinking that
Like, that's just real life
Dwelling already
Haven't even fucking started
Man, that's what I wanna change

(Akira The Don)
Life is good
Life is good
Like, it's cool to have one
It's cool to have one
Life is good
Life is good
Like, it's cool to have one
That's number one
