[Refrain]I spent my life making bad luck in the good timesLooking back where I was taking the good things with the badFor all I've lost, seen this far make me realize I haveI wanna live my days in vain but very far make me smile againSeems like a natural thing to do, just remember[Verse 1]Steady on my mindBad luck, good timesFor me it happens in the morning when I'm waiting for lightsI start thinking if he wrote my script differentPictures with the brush lets spray in this missed our existenceNever gone as far to say I wished on a starBut I could say I wished for a carSimple traits of us, people thinking too smallNow I realize the blink of an eye, the medicine sink in us allSink a swim till the season is fall, then it's gone to NovemberBut remember that December will callPermanent, not as long as some might thinkLast week I cleaned up some permanent inkOh, I'm on the verge of a breakThere's something new before the sky might fall and earth sinksI sat down and played the cards I'm dealtSome good, some bad, and still the message was feltThese are good times[Hook][Verse 2]Oh it was 20/20 vision then, before the catch you and closedThe audience was listeningOh that's the purpose of reflectingThe purpose of a wordsmith's pen bleeding ink till my sketches permanentI put the madness to the methodRound the same time Common dropped the Resurrection classicI was still tripping off tabs of bad acidDreaming about my own rap disc in plasticSelling demos back then became a lonely trailAlways got denied by the homie with the pony tailChalk that one up as that's part of the game, rightLooking back I'd do that shit the sameThe same time my mom was leaving my popsWas around the same time Neil Diamond sang Love on the RocksMake yourself a good day cause no one will do this besides yourselfThink about those wordsEach time when you're about to lose a good time[Hook][Verse 3]You never know, you never know, you never knowGood times is how I'm living it upWith my glass half full is how I'm viewing the cupIt went from when it's over to holding on a four leaf cloverTrying to find lady luck, where she atI'm stuck, seeing birds eye from 6'2"So I keep getting high, trying to lift my viewIt's funny how gotta pay bills can build the fan baseI love the road but ain't losing my land and that's damn straightI make a plan and at least one I set a dayI'm not quite ike but still draw from my animeI keep it moving and I plan to stay til the camera pans awayThese are good times, I walk the street with a byeAnd everything I did in the name of that highWhether I flopped or I sold a millionGot booed at every single solitary hand up towards the ceilingThese are good times[Hook]
