Stay Positive

Lyrics

Cause this world swallows souls
 And when the blues unfold
 It gets cold silence burns holes
 You're going mad
 Perhaps you always were
 But when things was good you just didn't care
 This is called irony
 When you most need to get up you got no energy
 Time and time shit'll happen
 The dark shit's unwrapping
 But no-one's listening your mates are laughing
 Your brethren's fucking and then you start hating
 Your stomach starts churning and you mind starts turning.
 So smoke another draw
 It won't matter no more but the next day still feels sore
 Rain taps on your window
 Always did though but you didn't hear it when things were so-so
 You're on your own now
 Your little zone you were born alone and believe me you'll die alone
 Weed becomes a chore
 You want the buzz back so you follow the others onto smack
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Feels nice and still
 Good thing about brown is it always will
 It's easy, no-one blames you
 It's that world out there that's fucked you
 You know less of a person and if God exists
 He still loves you
 Just remember that - the more you sink the further back from that brink
 Maybe you've lifetime scars and you think tattoos might be more fitting
 But who's picking?
 Searching for yourself you find demons
 Try and be a freeman and grasp that talisman
 Cause your the same as I am
 We all need our fellow man
 We all need our samaritan.
 Maybe I'm better looking than you though
 Maybe I've got more dough - but am I happier... no.
 Get the love of a good girl and your world will be much richer than my world
 And your happiness will uncurl
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Stop dreaming
 People who say that are blaspheming
 They're doing nine to five and moaning
 And they don't want you succeeding when they've blown it
 And you idols - who are they?
 They too dreamt about their day
 Positive steps will see your goals.
 Whether it's dollars or control, feel the gold.
 I ain't helping you climb the ladder
 I'm busy climbing mine.
 That's how it's been since the dawn of time
 If you reach a cul-de-sac
 The world turns it's back
 This is you zone, it's like blackjack
 He might get the ace or the top one
 So organise your two's and three's into a run then you'll have fucked him son
 And for that you'll be the better one
 One last thing before you go though
 When you feel better tommorow you'll be a hero
 But never forget today. you could be back here
 Things can stray
 What if you see me in that window?
 You won't help me I know.
 That's cool, just keep walking where you go.
 Carry on through the estate, stare at the geezers so they know you aint lightweight
 And go see your mates
 And when they don't look happy
 Play them this tape
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 I hope you understand me
 Just trying to stay positive
 I ain't no preaching fucker and I ain't no do-goody-goody either
 This is about when shit goes pear-shaped
 And if you aren't or never have been at rock bottom then good luck to you in the big wide world
 But remember that one day shit might just start crumbling
 Your bird might fuck off or you might lose your job
 It's when that happens that what I'm talking about will feel much more important to you
 So if you ain't feeling it, just be thankful that everything's cool in your world
 Respect to BC

 Positivity
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
 Just trying to stay positive
