Feeling Good
Indecent Proposal Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I been feeling good today
I love it when the sunshine shines all over my face
(Uh)
And I'm not in the mood today
To deal with anybody that would doubt what I got going for me
For me
For me
(Oh)

They say we're moving too fast shit I was 16
Waiting on a dream-team now we got gas
We takin all the free samples we don't ask
Now the bitches got a whole lot of ass
Oh and we all smoke one we don't pass
And if you cook with us, it's a class
And if you mess with us, show some class (ay)
Show some class
Don't waste your time being sad
All the bands don't care that she took what you had
I know it hurts bad
I know it hurts bad but that's in the past

I been feeling good today
I love it when the sunshine shines all over my face
(Uh)
And I'm not in the mood today
To deal with anybody that would doubt what I got going for me
For me
For me
(Oh)

I been feeling good today
I love it when the sunshine shines all over my face
(Uh)
And I'm not in the mood today
To deal with anybody that would doubt what I got going for me
For me
For me
(Oh)

I been feeling good today
I love it when the sunshine shines all over my face
(Uh)
And I'm not in the mood today
To deal with anybody that would doubt what I got going for me
For me
For me
(Oh)

I been feeling good today
I love it when the sunshine shines all over my face
(Uh)
And I'm not in the mood today
To deal with anybody that would doubt what I got going for me
For me

For me
(Oh)
