Another Day
Humble Gods Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been around this world, traveled all over this globe
I blazed my own trail, walked on all different types of roads
I stayed a fugitive from the money that I owed
Been in jail, fist fights, even broke the secret code
I wear some scars like the aging on my face
A living legend, yes, I'm living to tell
I even been to heaven, shit I even visited hell
You wanna know how I'm living, I guess I'm okay, I'm okay
You wanna know how I'm living, it's just another day, I'm okay, I'm okay
It's just another day, it's just another day, it's just another day
I drank a quart of faygo out of Violent J's cup
I was at a rave on E in the summer of love
I've been to mansion yacht parties, even slept out on the streets
I signed my first record deal with Mr. Eazy-E
I played with every band that I ever wanted to see
Fishbone, Janes Addiction, Bad Brains and MDC
Pennywise, Vandals, Eminem and ICP
I slept out in the mountains even camped out on the beach
You wanna know how I'm living, I guess I'm okay, I'm okay
You wanna know how I'm living, it's just another day, I'm okay, I'm okay
It's just another day, it's just another day, it's just another day
Every time I threw a club you found me counting grands
I've won the Cannabis cup I even smoked weed in Japan
Fine and foxy ladies yeah, I guess I've known a few
But I married one had another and now there's only two
I wear some scars like the aging on my face
And when I'm dead and gone I will disappear without a trace
A living legend, yes, I'm living to tell
I even been to heaven, shit I even visited hell
You wanna know how I'm living, I guess I'm okay, I'm okay
You wanna know how I'm living, it's just another day, I'm okay, I'm okay
It's just another day, it's just another day, it's just another day
Look over my shoulder, why I'm never turning back
I got a ways to go, I'm rolling from the fastest sacks
A little Bob Marley and a pocket full of cash
And if I'm in some trouble, yeah, I'm known to dine and dash
I wear some scars like the aging on my face
And when I'm dead and gone I will disappear without a trace
A living legend, yes, I'm living to tell
I've been to heaven shit, I even visited hell
You wanna know how I'm living, I guess I'm okay, I'm okay
You wanna know how I'm living, it's just another day, I'm okay, I'm okay
It's just another day
