The Laughs Lyrics by Mad Sadiq

SADIQ

2021

[Intro]
So I told her that right
And then, she was like
"Yo, like
I can't even imagine, I just don't
I don't even understand cause you're so happy, and gitty
And making jokes, or whatever
How could you go through all these things?
I just need to know like"

[Hook]
Nigga
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
I don't know
It's hard to tell you going through it, but you do
So how the fuck you find a way to still smile?
I don't know
No way you bottle the pain, so bro you got to explain
Cause it's insane
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
That's it? That's all you got?
Ahmad
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
That's just me
Well duh, you don't smoke or drink
So Imma need a little lesson on your method, teach me

[Verse 1]
How to hide my scars
How to retain my light through the darkness
Praying that this life won't leave a nigga heartless
War at home, in the streets
I'm a target
Tired of the torment, feel like it's torture
Wish I could put the crown down for a moment
Cause I don't get a penny from making the family proud
But we all need atonement, it's been that way for a while
Mad how you still smiling?
With everything you've piled on, since a child?
All the pressure, can turn into stress
That leads to depression
And you be holding shit in, you're in need of some severance
Living two lives like, Sabrina Spellman
Weird how you magically keep 'em separate
Tears flow before I can keep it stepping
So it's clear Imma need a little lesson, I'm impressed by

[Hook]
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
I don't know
It's hard to tell you going through it, but you do
So how the fuck you find a way to still smile?
I don't know
No way you bottle the pain, so bro you got to explain
Cause it's insane

[Verse 2]
Wait, maybe I am
What's sanity really?
Especially if you're not counting in the standard of living
We're in two different stances
You're vanity driven
I found conviction in these scriptures, carefully hand-written
By damaged feelings, damn
Least it's some kind of therapy
Something that's often rejected apparently
These stanzas are really what gives me the transparency
Or clarity
Through all of the family affairs
So, how exactly do I smile when it's rough?
Growing up, told I wasn't smiling enough
Yes, I used to pile on and hide all the cuts
Nonchalant but I would cry right behind the tough
Drowning in the tears, swallowed by the fear of what tomorrow brings
God forbid, I get offed by the police
God forbid, I get caught in the streets by a hating ass nigga who wants clout and prestige
So I'm smiling ear to ear
The manifestation is real
My mission is to build, give a fuck about a deal
Unless we buying the block, accruing the stock
Moving for the violence to stop, saving the guap
Changing what the children are taught
The greatest weapon's a progressive mindset
And we don't have much time
Done letting the baggage block out my shine
Me and my people gon' reside up at the top
Nigga tell me

[Hook]
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
Got to keep the spirits up
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
They come to me when they need cheering up
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
We're living, we're living
Thank God we're living
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
How the fuck you find a way to still smile?
