barry ii - measured in happiness lyrics

trouble with the trolley aye

[verse one]

everybody wanna flex the money they’ve got
or show off the nice shoes that they’ve bought
tell us, how many chicks they bag
or diamonds on they hand they have
it’s an ass epidemic
trying to look as successful as
the pats in two thousand and seven
forgetting they lost in the desert
man it’s so pathetic
man it’s such a shame when you see it
so many people cry out for attention but never receive it
and i do bеlieve if
they found happinеss in themselves
and actually suffered through h+ll
they talked to a therapist
sought out a specialist
and put in the work to get help
they would feel worthy of loving themself
society tells us that money is power
and power is all that you need
but when i had money
as much as i wanted
man i didn’t feel the reprieve
the money it suffocates
strangles your throat and it’s hoping you struggle to breath
man i could buy anything
whatever i wanted
so i got some rope in the hopes i could leave
but i worked on my troubles
i struggled and struggled
now look at the way that i am
i talked and i mumbled
my pain quickly doubled
but when i was done i felt like a completely new man
so i’m urging
i’m hoping
i’m telling
i’m praying
that you go in search of whatever you can
i guarantee you’ll return and you’ll thank me you saying
like; barry you’ve done it again
i spent so much time in a hole in my life i’d forgotten what happiness was (i did)
but now that i’m in it
i’m constantly winning it feels so amazing because
[verse two]

i ain’t worry bout insecurities
or hide my flaws
i find more
joy in life
than before
i do chores
feel good man
i run far
feel good man
i’m not sure
feeling good will
ever be topped and i just want more man

[verse three]

why do we keep it a secret the level of happy we’re currently at
if i had a dollar for every time i said fine at the moment that someone would ask
i’d hold all the power
i’d have lot’s of shoes and diamonds and chicks in my bag
and probably be sad at the thought of the perfected season i lost and i defs coulda had
so i’m gonna show off my happiness
even with others around in the depths or despair
the same way we show off the items we purchased
to people collecting welfare
you say that it’s selfish
but think of the message i’d share
i went from sad and depressed
to floating on air
and all that it took was a moment to care
and sitting my ass in that chair
so throw all your caution to wind and do just as sh+ggy does
and hold really fast, on all your beliefs and preach it like atticus
and when you are feeling like i have been feeling you’ll say “man barry he carried us”
so f+ck the economy anyway
cause i think that wealth
should be measured in happiness
