Felt the sun shining on my face
It became so clear to me that everything is going my way
I feel like there's no limit to what I can see
Got rid of fears that were holding me
My endless possibilities
Has the whole world opened for me
That's why I'm feeling
I'm feeling so good
I knew I would
Been taking care of myself
Like I should
'Cause not one thing
Can bring me down
Nothing in this world gonna turn me round
Now the day is turning into night
And everything is still going right
There's no way you can stop me this time
Or break this spirit of mine
Like the stars above I'm gonna shine
Anything I want will be mine
Tonight I'm gonna have a good time
Call a few friends of mine
'Cause I'm loving life
And tonight's for feeling
I'm feeling so good
I knew I would
Been taking care of myself
Like I should
'Cause not one thing
Can bring me down
Nothing in this world gonna turn me round
I'm feeling so good
I knew I would
Been taking care of myself
Like I should
'Cause not one thing
Can bring me down
Nothing in this world gonna turn me round
I'm feeling so good
I knew I would
Been taking care of myself
Like I should
'Cause not one thing
Can bring me down
Nothing in this world gonna turn me round

When I opened up my eyes today
At the beginning of my day, after waking up from a restful night's sleep
Felt the sun shining on my face
Sensed the warmth and glow of the sun's rays on my skin
It became so clear to me that everything is going my way
Realized that my luck and circumstances are in my favor
I feel like there's no limit to what I can see
Believe that I can achieve anything and experience everything I desire
Got rid of fears that were holding me
Eliminated any anxieties or worries that were hindering or delaying my progress
My endless possibilities
Continuous opportunities and potential for success and growth
Has the whole world opened for me
Perceived that the entire universe has become available and accessible to me
That's why I'm feeling
The reason why I am experiencing such positive emotions and sensations
I'm feeling so good
Experiencing an immense sense of pleasure, happiness, and satisfaction
I knew I would
Expected to feel this way, because of my positive outlook and mindset
Been taking care of myself
Maintaining my physical, emotional, and mental health by making good choices and prioritizing self-care
Like I should
As I recognize that I am responsible for my well-being
'Cause not one thing
As nothing can dampen or ruin my mood or progress
Can bring me down
As I am resilient and strong-willed, and will not let obstacles or setbacks define me
Nothing in this world gonna turn me round
As I am determined and motivated to continue moving forward and achieving success
Now the day is turning into night
The evening is approaching, and my positive mindset and outlook persist
And everything is still going right
My unforeseen fortune and positive circumstances have continued throughout the day
There's no way you can stop me this time
Nobody can prevent me from achieving my goals or hinder my progress today
Or break this spirit of mine
My determination and motivation are unbreakable, and no external factors can negatively impact them
Like the stars above I'm gonna shine
I will radiate positivity, optimism, and success, similar to the beauty and brilliance of the stars
Anything I want will be mine
I can have and achieve anything I desire through hard work, persistence, and perseverance
Tonight I'm gonna have a good time
Intend to enjoy and celebrate my successes and good fortune tonight
Call a few friends of mine
Will share my happiness and positivity with my closest companions
'Cause I'm loving life
As I am embracing and cherishing every moment and opportunity life has to offer
And tonight's for feeling
As tonight is a time to focus on experiencing and enjoying life's pleasures and joys
