The Good Life Lyrics

[Verse One: Danimal Lector]

Fat blunts, cold beers, no fear
Bottles popping, oh dear, so cheers
Lets toast to the cool kids, raise 'em up
But there really ain't too much that you can say to us
Cause we never gave a fuck

'Round here, that's the code that we live by
Get high and do just enough to get by

You better p-p-party like a rockstar
Leave the club, get brought home in a cop car

Sick parties, bitch, I'm this gnarly
Zip it, Barbie
I spit more shit than Chris Farley
Except we still livin', successful and still winnin'
Couple pills and some women
Copping brain like Bill Clinton
Rocking out, potty mouth, saying everything I shouldn't, right?
This has gotta be the good life, this has gotta be the good life
Follow me, I'mma show you what it looks like

[Hook]

Oh, this has gotta be the good life
Gotta be a good life
This could really be a good life, good life
Oh, this has gotta be a good life
Say oh, got this feeling that you can't fight
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life
A good, good life
[Verse Two: Danimal Lector]

Feels like I've been waiting for months
But everything's finally going my way for once
Blazing a blunt, thinking of how the old days were fun
Skip class to get my first tat, my favorite one
It's the good life, wouldn't trade it for none
I'mma shine every morning like the rays from the sun

Uh, no one can hold me back, my Mama told me that
Leave the past in the past, and there's no reason to overreact
Don't stress the small things, cherish what you have

I got the best friends, family and parents so I'm glad
Couldn't ask for more, yeah my life is amazing
Agree with what I'm saying? Turn it up and keep it playing
Cause I feel like I'm on top of the planet
Is this real life, or am I dreaming goddammit?
I don't know, but this has gotta be the good life
Follow me, I'mma show you what it looks like

[Hook]

Oh, this has gotta be the good life
Gotta be a good life
This could really be a good life, good life
Oh, this has gotta be a good life
Say oh, got this feeling that you can't fight
Like this city is on fire tonight
This could really be a good life
A good, good life
