A Good Day Lyrics by Shepard Merritt

Happiness is a Habit

2020

Hey a good day a good day is really far away
Keep it together it never gets better be brave
Hey a good day a good day is really far away
Smile on my face is empty but I'm feeling okay
Okay
They don't like to pout
Ive never been trained on how to be brave
Ive just been filling it out
I don't ever think that ill get the hang of it
Im just cowardly bound
Been making my way towards a good day
But all I can see is the clouds
I'm smelling the clouds
Don't like the smell of the roses
Holding me down
A smile on your face will show them your weakness
Must beat yourself to the ground
Composed of self hatred know where you're placed
Your self worth is up to them
So what they think is what you'll make of yourself
Never be more, you'll never be more
You're developing your educate through melodies
And every season not a breeze it gets more difficult than the previous
Traveling and scavenging for happiness surpassing what is happening
I feel as if I'm trapped in a theater
Movies cinematic better move it to the back and take cover hope no one is seeing ya
Take cover take cover take cover
I think we're deceiving him
Hey a good day a good day is really far away
Keep it together it never gets better be brave
Hey a good day a good day is really far away
Smile on my face is empty but I'm feeling okay
Okay, a little confused
A bit out of place I'm feeling complacent
How did I get in this room
I don't like the faces what are the faces
I don't remember this tune
I must be in training
I don't think this is appropriate
The voice say quit your complaining
You'll be amazing
I do not wanna be anything other than God's servant
I do not wanna do anything other than God's purpose
Filling my head with the negativity is not working
If you getting inside of my head you better be my surgeon
I'm in the front of the line, is it my time
Idk why I rushed to get here
If you don't mind, I'm gonna slide
Isn't my type, I'm gonna steer clear
Ever since I found my mind
You have been trying to get me to get here
Now it's all lies, what a surprise
I'm taking over my own body this year
Hey, a good day a good day's really far away
Keep it together it never gets better the trembling never quits evident better to stay
In this room
Well I don't have a say
But it's cool
Who are you
Practice, practice
Hey a good day a good day is really far away
Keep it together it never gets better be brave
Hey a good day a good day is really far away
Smile on my face is empty but I'm feeling okay
Yeah practice, it makes perfect
But I don't think practicing is working
I don't feel like it's practical, it hurts me
Get the wires away I'm getting nervous
This isn't happiness
This is burglary
Trying to make me smile by putting me through some type of surgery
Nothing's happening
Nothing is surfacing
Your effort in bringing out the best in me is bringing out the worst in me
Typically people get their feelings hurt
Seldom do i listen when they scream in church
Criticism hasn't ever really worked
People don't want the dinner they want dessert
Feed them what they want and they'll love you
Feed them what they need and they'll hate you
Feed them God's word and they'll think its absurd
Cause they're losing that impurity they can't lose
I will not practice your ways, I
Can't become happy this way, I
Don't need distractions to face life
Happiness ain't far away, my
Gut is telling me to say, if
You're trying to find where you're placed, by
Someone telling you to change, then
It's farther away than you think, yeah
Hey a good day a good day is really far away
Keep it together it never gets better be brave
Hey a good day a good day is really far away
Smile on my face is empty I don't think I'm okay
