So Good
Allday Lyrics

All the shit that you been through
I acknowledge all the hardships you've faced

I don't ever wanna see you down
I don't want you to feel defeated or sad

And I gotta say "me too"
I can relate to your struggles because I've been there too

'Cause I've been where you are right now
I've been in a similar situation before

I was a bright child, wide eyed, my mind was open
I was once a curious and motivated child

Highly motivated to succeed, quite devoted
I had a strong drive to achieve my goals

But eventually I noticed every time I tried to focus
Over time, I realized that I had difficulty concentrating

That my mind was kinda bogus so we sought a diagnosis
I realized that something was off with my thinking and sought a diagnosis

I had hypersensitivity, ADD, I'm fidgety
I was diagnosed with hypersensitivity and Attention Deficit Disorder, which made me fidgety and restless

Basically they want to medicate me 'til it fixes me
The doctors suggested medication to treat my conditions

Man, I don't really think this is the thing for me
I didn't feel comfortable with the idea of medication

I know I'm kind of shitty, but I'm just trying to live in peace
I may not be perfect, but I just want to live a peaceful life

You wanna make me to a zombie 'cause you're lazy
The doctors wanted to medicate me so that it would be easier for them

And it's easier on you to say "sorry, you're crazy man"
It's easier for them to label me as crazy than to try to understand my condition

And if you don't take this here, you're gonna fail exams
They used the threat of academic failure to pressure me into taking medication

Wait a year, your fate is that of a vagrant tramp
They implied that if I didn't take medication, my future would be bleak and I would end up homeless

But this ain't making sense, I gotta take a stand
I realized that their arguments didn't make sense and decided to stand up for myself

They say I couldn't live without it well I say I can
They claimed that I needed medication, but I believed I could manage my conditions without it

'Cause I never took those poison pills
I chose not to take the medication they prescribed

And I failed school bad but my choice was still good
Even though I struggled in school without medication, I still believe it was the right choice for me

We making bread like Helga's while the rest die helpless
We're making money while others struggle to survive

So excuse me for pursuing dreams, guess I'm selfish
I'm sorry if I come across as selfish for chasing my dreams

Rocking hand-me-down clothes but I'm the eldest
I wear second-hand clothes, but I'm the oldest in my family

So how the hell does that work out, Mum can you tell us?
I'm not sure how our family dynamics make sense

And I know I roll around with some red-eyed fellas
I hang out with some friends who smoke weed

We all wanna be king like the dead guy in Memphis
We all aspire to be successful and powerful like Elvis Presley

Could be living stable but I'd rather live it fast
I could live a stable life, but I prefer to live life with excitement and adventure

'Cause I grew up looking shitty all the other kids would laugh
Because of my background, I was teased and made fun of by others

Now I have somebody say that I look upper-middle class
I received a compliment about my appearance, which makes me feel good

Well that's my fucking aim, I'll tell the gutter "kiss my arse"
My goal is to prove people wrong who doubted me and come from a difficult background

And I don't want to spit these bars but I don't have shit else
I don't want to rap, but I don't have any other options

So when I'm rapping you can tell that it's my actual self
When I rap, it's a reflection of my true self

And so I brag about a girl, whatever tactic helps
Sometimes I exaggerate about having a girlfriend to make myself feel better

To make me feel little better about the hand I'm dealt
I do this to boost my morale and feel better about my situation

And damn, I'm so ashamed but at the same time
I feel ashamed for my shortcomings, but also motivated to improve

I know it's all good, I'm having a great time
Despite my struggles, I'm still enjoying life

Sayin' mono, mono, mono, mono
Repeating the word "mono" to emphasize feeling good

Good
Expressing feeling great or positive

I feel good
Feeling great or positive

Knock on wood 'cause I wanna feel this way tomorrow
Expressing hope or desire to continue feeling good
