Jamaica (Smile Anyway)

Uh, uh, uh, yeah, yeah...
 Fighting isolation, gotta get out this shell
 Old flame, done took my heart thru hell
 Now I'm out here, not feeling like myself
 Drinking in the day time, might as well
 Shooting in the dark, I'm hoping this would help
 Black on the inside, out here, it's light as hell
 The bar next to the pool, to watch the people
 There you were, sitting on the stool, a cutie I won't speak to
 Thought you was flirting with dude
 I wasn't trying to be rude
 We had to share a menu
 Thought a convo would be cool
 What's that accent you got?
 Nah, I think it sounds cute
 Yeah, I'm from Alabama so I know
 My shit sound different too
 You in Massachu
 What you like, what you do
 Then I told you I rap too
 You like, when you gonna show it my fool?
 You nodding your head and smiled
 Thought you was finna cap
 You repeated back some lines
 Said you like what it's about
 Grabbing my phone
 Sending yourself, the friend request
 Making yourself at home, fuck being my guest
 You don't have to settle for less, never settle for less
 I barely know your name, you can never be checked
 Peeping your vibe, whole time, that's why I didn't say much
 I didn't think we'd speak again after vacation
 So I enjoyed a happy moment, for a while anyway
 Bittersweet, if she's smile at you, then smile anyway
 Smile anyway
 Ok, you hit me with the chat
 I hit you up, you hit me back
 No strings attached, let's be cool and relax
 I'll be damned, look at that
 What a catch... not saying she's mine
 But if she was, so far we match
 Beyond that...
 My confidence was low, I said I needed assurance
 Every morning, without fail, you texted me some with some cool ish
 Feelings brewing, even though I'm still doing me
 I still need you to keep doing what you doing
 Waiting for the shoe to drop and stop all this movement
 And it never did... friends for the betterment
 You freshened me up, my life's peppermint
 Walls crumbling around me, the ceiling is threatening
 Pressure building so fast, the weight getting heavy
 And then it's happening already - I don't know that I'm ready
 Every time I try to put down that crown, you never let me
 It's so easy to frown, I said I need you today
 You said I know that it's hard, but smile anyway
 Smile anyway
 Old flames, done took our heart thru hell
 Now we out here, not feeling like ourselves
 Can't let this get away (Uh, mm)
 Every day on schedule, told a nigga I'm special
 God drug you through hell just to pull you out and bless you
 Can't let this get away (Uh, uh)
 I don't know where it leads but you got something I need
 You ask me questions sometimes, always got answers for me
 Can't let this get away (Yeah)
 You A&R'd Summer Baby, met you in the Summer, baby
 Saved all my summers, baby, you got my number, baby
 Can't let that get away
 So smile anyway
