Lemonade

It isn't easy to smile through all these growing pains
Feels like the world is against you and you might go insane
Feels like you're trapped in a prison that runs within your brain
Never even notice it recently when you hear your name

Way too distracted with matters outside of your control
Way too caught up in the misses to ever hit the goal
It's okay to breaks, 'cause life's an endless road
Only ever leads you to the place where you're supposed to go

So take a minute, just breathe and remember who you are
Look at the sky and make wishes when you see shooting stars
See how the moon is just glowing and lighting up the dark
Think about the fireflies who fill the air with buzzing sparks

It ain't as bad as you think it is when you take a second
To let the air and the nature around you send a message
Use your fingers and try to count to a dozen blessings
You'll remember why life is special and yours is precious

When life gives you lemons, go ahead and make lemonade
And when life gives you lyrics, turn them into a serenade
And when life gives you pain just pray, because those better days'll come, will come

When life gives you lemons, go ahead and make lemonade
And when life gives you lyrics, turn them into a serenade
And when life gives you pain just pray, because those better days'll come, will come

It isn't easy to smile in awful situations
To try to make it through all the trials and tribulations
To hold the tears when you're tired and getting close to breaking
I can see the look in your eyes, yeah there's no mistaking

You've been taking damage right to the heart and it's weaker now
Used to run the field but you're sitting back in the bleachers now
Once upon a time was the student but I'm the teacher now
Took this tranquil beat put in on repeat preaching how

You gotta let the rain and thunder come and then go
How a star still needs the darkness there in order to glow
How you often ride a wave before you learn how to row
And how you gotta keep it moving like the spin of the globe

I'm not saying that I'm close to having all the answers
But I feel like just in this instance that it doesn't matter
'Cause I'm just elevating higher on this mental ladder
Hoping I make it to be more than just another rapper

When life gives you lemons, go ahead and make lemonade
And when life gives you lyrics, turn them into a serenade
And when life gives you pain just pray, because those better days'll come
Will come

When life gives you lemons, go ahead and make lemonade
And when life gives you lyrics, turn them into a serenade
And when life gives you pain just pray, because those better days'll come
Will come
