Crush a bit, little bit

Roll it up, take a hit

Feeling lit, feeling right

2 AM, summer night

I don't care, hand on the wheel

Driving drunk, I'm doing my thing

Rolling the Midwest side and out

Living my life, getting out dreams

I'ma do just what I want

Looking ahead no turning back

People told me slow my roll

I'm screaming out, "Fuck that"

Fuck that, fuck that

Tell me what you know about dreamin', dreamin'?

You don't really know 'bout nothin', nothin'

Tell me what you know about the night terrors every night

5 AM cold sweats, waking up to the sky

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know

Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold, hey

I'll be fine once I get it

I'll be good

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know

Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold, hey

I'll be fine once I get it, it, it, it, it...

Tell me what you know about dreams, dreams

Tell me what you know about night terrors? Nothing

You don't really care about the trials of tomorrow

Rather lay awake in the bed full of sorrow

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know

Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold, hey

I'll be fine once I get it

I'll be good

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know

Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold, hey

I'll be fine once I get it

I'll be good

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know

Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold, hey

I'll be fine once I get it

I'll be good

I'm on the pursuit of happiness and I know

Everything that shine ain't always gonna be gold, hey

I'll be fine once I get it

I'll be good...
