Pursuit Of Happiness

from Perceiving Is Deceiving by Formula

lyrics

Arsenal of vocabulary sewn to make up my bed
It’s possible or mandatory that I clean up my head
Between voids I’m dead just waiting on clock work
Instance of common sense makes me stop to smirk
Rewind in reverse behind this black shirt
I plan to flirt with this girl if she’d answer first
I've done my best and now I’ll do my worst
Take it easy since I've seen up close that hearts can burst
But the insane craves for affection sets me off level
So much bran wave current that’ll never get settled
It’s so hard being in a vessel affected by emotion
I’m a wreck for sex but I can motion the potion
It doesn't matter let’s take baby steps up the ladder
I know that I’m sweet but don’t eat through the wrapper
Breathe deep and capture the moments and the laughter
I don’t even believe in love but we could read to the chapter

This song’s for everyone in the pursuit of happiness
You’re all held back by whatever your bad habit is
No matter how we change we’ll see the blackness shift
Live for the future the present and just know that the past is shit

I’m not empty I’m chased by the memories I’ve embraced
Even though I considered what led me to now is waste
Use it as paste to glaze up the unknowing upcoming
Traced to face a dilemma of life while the suns running
And the moon is forever following my hallow sin I wallow in
I’m thinking of things to say for your time that I’m borrowing
Make a message clear if you’re here have no fear
Perceiving is believing but we all love to sound sincere
When saying something’s there but we don’t feel a thing
So I live my song and only care for what the seasons bring
Summer to fall to winter and rejoice in spring
Timeline spiral and the calendar becomes a ring
And I like to imagine they all lay on the equator
But this is hypothetical I’m not the matter creator
Didn't ask for my position but I can’t imagine greater
But don’t waste your life just being a religious debater

This song’s for everyone in the pursuit of happiness
You’re all held back by whatever your bad habit is
No matter how we change we’ll see the blackness shift
Live for the future the present and just know that the past is shit
