So Positive

The grass is greener on the other guy's lawn

But I'm on mine now til' it looks right

I'm lookin' at my glass and it looks half empty,

I'm still gonna chug that shit tonight

Wanna go places, tryna pack

But I'm stuck in my basement, tryna rap

Fell down once, but I'm climbing back

And I can see my dreams in a shiny plaque

Sometimes dreams play hard to get

You can't believe in those promises

When you offer the bread and condiments

Cause' you can't pay your bills with compliments

I know where I'm going, I just wanna get there

Gotta lot of shoes, and I'm runnin' in my best pair

But my mind's on the next pair

And where I'm gonna be next year

I'm so, I'm so positive

And I know that I'll be alright, now

I'm so, I'm so positive

And I know that I'll be alright, now

I don't mind, I've been going through this my whole life

And I know I can't fly, but I close my eyes and I try

I'm not thinkin' bout the words that I can't write,

I'm singing all the words in my head

I'm not thinkin' bout the girls that I can't get,

I'm thinkin' bout the girl in my bed

I'm not worried that I'm going with the crowd,

I'm too busy worryin' about going it alone

I'm not thinking bout the lineup at the club now,

I'm thinkin' bout how I'm getting home

I'm so, I'm so positive

And I know that I'll be alright, now

I'm so, I'm so positive

And I know that I'll be alright, now

I don't mind, I've been going through this my whole life

And I know I can't fly, but I close my eyes and I try

(So sick of it!)

I don't mind, I've been going through this my whole life

And I know I can't fly, but I close my eyes and I try

Cause' life ain't a movie role

And you didn't write the script

So that's no way that you could know

What you're getting out of it

And the love isn't truth enough,

The money is counterfeit

Put it all on a million

Know what? I'm likin' the sound of it, yeah

I'm not a superhero, and that's all I can say

Cause' when the times get tough, the tough don't fly away

It's almost over now, but back in the beginnin'

We had nothing to lose, it was time we started winnin'

Escape the underground, suns out, star shine

Not that we're all stars, just that our stars align

And you can do it too, and hold your own hand

Just keep on doing you, follow your own plan!

I'm so, I'm so positive

And I know that I'll be alright, now

I'm so, I'm so positive

And I know that I'll be alright, now

I don't mind, I've been going through this my whole life

And I know I can't fly, but I close my eyes and I try

(So sick of it!)

I don't mind, I've been going through this my whole life

And I know I can't fly, but I close my eyes and I try
