Happy Lyrics by Joy Denalane, Ghostface Killah

WILLPOWER

2023

[Intro: Joy Denalane]
Mh-hm, mh-hm
Mh-hm, mh-hm

[Part 1: Joy Denalane]
Don't know how this life works without you
But it all depends which story I'ma choose
Overwhelmed by this tsunami
Pain is something everybody fears
And I'm in tears

[Chorus: Joy Denalane & Ghostface Killah]
But I am happy
That you let me lay down right beside you, I'm happy
So happy that things got so dark
Oh, daddy, oh, daddy (Uh-huh)
I'm happy for the loss (Yeah)
The loss, the loss, the loss

[Part 2: Ghostface Killah]
Yo, the family gathers in the final hours
Photos of great times, tears and flowers
I can feel it, God in the spirit
Songs of the swan had played and you can hear it
Back in the day, the vinyl spins when it's after dark
Times you would hold me, sit and laugh as we played in parks
Six children, king of the housе, you made your mark
The love you gavе us was sacred, but now it scrapes the heart
Yeah, I'm shakin' while I'm sayin' this
Holdin' on for dear life while I don't know what day it is
The pain of your departure made it difficult explainin' this
I know people who lost loved ones, but it ain't the same as this
Plus, I'm still daddy's lil' girl
You did it to: Nothin' else mattered in this world
I love you, until then, we meet again
Sometimes I can't understand, but then it makes sense

[Chorus: Joy Denalane]
But I am happy
That you let me lay down right beside you, I'm happy
So happy that things got so dark
Oh, daddy, oh, daddy
I'm happy for the loss
The loss, the loss, the loss

[Part 3: Joy Denalane]
Got to see another part of you (Ooh)
Not this hero-father that I knew (Ooh)
But somethin' lovely trapped inside
As you became the child, my love, it grew (Ooh)
I needed you

[Chorus: Joy Denalane]
But I am happy (Happy)
That you let me lay down right beside you, I'm happy (So happy)
So happy that things got so dark
Oh, daddy (Daddy), oh, daddy
I'm happy for the loss (Loss), the loss
Yes, I am happy (Yeah)
That you trusted me enough to let go and we (And we)
Had a laugh about your memory
Oh, daddy (Daddy), oh daddy
I'm happy for the loss
The loss, the loss, the loss

[Outro: Joy Denalane]
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, I am
Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely now I am, daddy
Lonely, lonely, lonely
They said I should sit around and grieve, oh, oh
But I am happy
