Be Happy
Lyrics
INTRO
'Be Happy' By Seth Chaney.
Spoken
Don't be like me, be happy, I'm miserable can't you see, I'm drownin in my own despair, there's nothing left for me here.
*Be happy, unlike me.*
I wear a smile to hide the pain, pretend I'm living peacefully behind a silent scream.
Every night I stir awake, fighting thoughts that won't leave me be.
Sad Slow RAP
Be happy, be free, be anything but me.
I'm'a walkin contradiction trapped inside misery, a prisoner of my mind, chained to my anxiety, searchin for'a little peace inside this dyin fantasy I made about Escaping Reality.
*Be happy unlike me.*
I'm just a broken soul with a heart full of despair and nowhere to Go.
I keep pleadin an screamin for help but nobody can hear, it's like I've been drownin in silence for so many years yet nobody cares.
*Be happy unlike me.*
I laugh when I'm hurtin, I lie when I say I'm fine, I bury my feelins and call it devine but I'm barely alive inside, each passing day becomes harder to survive, I'm losing my grip and wasting my life.
So be happy unlike me, there's a war in my head and I'm losing my mind.
CHORUS — HAUNTING
*Be happy.*
Even if you don't know why..
*Keep smiling.*
Even when your feeling down inside.
*Be happy.*
Don't let your darkness drag you around.
Don't let your sadness turn your smile upsidedown.
Be happy.
Don't become me.
I'm still searching for a place that I belong.
If you can find your peace, then please hold on.
Be happy.
Even when I'm no longer singing this song.
CHILL RAP
Mental misery messin' wit me, I'm bitterly sick of dis pain lingering, I'm'a cynical individual crippled by life lessons I was taught, I'm diggin' a hole in a mind that's distraught by thoughts.
*Be happy don't be like me.*
I overthink everything and question my worth, I feel like'a ghost buried alive on earth, I'm searchin' for meanin, but meanin feels meaningless I'm screamin cause every achievement feels temporary, fleetin and treacherous, I sing about Escapin Reality but always bein pulled back by gravity.
I wanna be happy, but my happiness fades when I close my eyes all of my demons come out from inside, creepin an crawlin back out and there's nowhere ta hide in sight.
Be happy, don't become me, don't follow my pain don't carry your sorrow for more than a day like shackles and chains draggin you through rain.
If not for you.
Then be happy for me.
SOFT
Maybe someday.
I'll understand what happiness means.
Maybe someday.
I'll wake up without fighting my dreams.
Maybe someday I won't feel as much pain.
But until that day arrives.
Please don't waste your life away like I did mine.
EMOTIONAL
*Be happy unlike me.*
Don't let sorrow take control.
I don't want my pain to become your reality.
I don't want my misery to steal your serenity.
If there's one thing I can give you while I'm lost inside of me.
It's this song explaining.
Be happy.
Be everything I couldn't be.
HAUNTING
Don't be like me..
*Be happy.*
I'm miserable.
*Can't you see.*
*You don't wanna be like me.*
Spoken
Don't be like me, be happy, I'm miserable can't you see, I'm drownin in my own despair, there's nothing left for me here.
