about

ABOUT THE SONG:
As many of you may know, I write music for television and commercials! In the world of commercials, we often like to keep lyrics really light and happy. Positivity sells products! The best kind of positivity, however, is the genuine kind. Be TOO happy, and it seems fake. When I wrote this song, I wanted to take that kind of saccharine positivity, and see how I could make it feel real and genuine to my own life experiences. I think it worked?

lyrics

I'm feeling hip and funky-fresh
Top of the top, no stress
I gave my all, now it's the best
I got it

I'm feeling up, I'm feeling high
Looking up to the sky
Living in my own paradise
I got it

I might give up before when I didn't know what to do
I might give up before when I didn't know what to do
But I've been through hell and back with a hammer in my hand
Bangin' on the walls 'til they fall at my feet again
Damn it all if you think that you can stop me now

I deserve the best in life, so get it right
I said, you deserve the best in life, so get right

After all this fight, I got the best in life
And it'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright
After all this time, I got the best in life
And it'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright

I'm feelin' drunk without a drink
Greatness I'm on the brink
You just might miss me if you blink
I love it

'Cause I'm running at the speed of sound
I'll show you what's going down
My future's starting now
and I love it

I might give up before when I didn't know what to do
I might give up before when I didn't know what to do
But I've been through hell and back with a hammer in my hand
Bangin' on the walls 'til they fall at my feet again
Damn it all if you think that you can stop me now

I deserve the best in life, so get it right
I said, you deserve the best in life, so get right

After all this fight, I got the best in life
And it'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright
After all this time, I got the best in life
And it'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright

And it'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright
And it'll be alright, it'll be alright, it'll be alright
