happiness is the only way i can function

[intro] The shit i've been through can't be bought The shit i've been through can't be taught [verse 1] Never learned to care Searchin' for loopholes Got to earn my despair Reachin' for new clothes When i don't need it I'm good with the little i've got Stayin' humble tryna' be smart I'm filled with happiness (you just don't see it) [chorus] This ain't no story for the weak minded This ain't no story for those who's blinded By cameras and articles It's to show ya everything is possible [verse 2] Never learned to fear anything Started questioning my place Goin' head first into everything Trapped in the symbolic haze Face always with a smile Hidin' my reality behind it Couldn't find true happiness for a while Had to seek deep within to find it [bridge] Happiness is the only way i can function (sometimes it can be hard) Layed to rest all my problems, so i can keep movin' and stay in motion (just gotta do your part) [chorus] This ain't no story for the weak minded This ain't no story for those who's blinded By cameras and articles It's to show ya everything is possible [verse 3] Never learned to stare at people for whatever reason You look at me and see a son who never had a father It's winter and it's dark But i find hope within the stars That's how i cope with it There's always good to be found If you're open to it [chorus] This ain't no story for the weak minded (the weak minded) This ain't no story for those who's blinded By cameras and articles It's to show ya everything is possible [pause] [outro] Happiness is the only way i can function (thats real) [end]
