The Best
Josiah and the Bonnevilles Lyrics

I’m living my best life (Hell yea)
I am enjoying my life to its fullest potential and feeling great about it.

I don’t really care what they say ‘bout me
I am not concerned about others' opinions or criticisms of me.

Stay strong
Be resilient and maintain your fortitude.

Don’t put your head down live long
Do not lose hope, keep persevering and strive for a long, fruitful life.

Kings and queens, we’ve been through war
We all have experienced hardships and struggles, just like royalty who have fought in wars.

Fix your crown we’ve earned much more
We have overcome challenges and obstacles, so we need to hold our heads high as we have earned greater rewards and recognition.

The year ain’t happened quite like we have planned
Our expectations for this year have not been fully met.

But we can face it all we do is stand
Despite unanticipated complications, we can confront anything just by standing firm and holding our ground.

You’ve got to stand up and live long
Endure and maintain your strength in life, and you will live a long and fulfilling life.

I see you holding on I swear it won’t be long
I notice your perseverance and know that your trials will soon end.

So just keep holding on soon you will sing along
Keep pushing forward, and soon enough you will be able to celebrate and be proud of your achievements.

Diamond
A metaphor for someone who is strong and persevered through a lot.

You really looking like a diamond
You are looking incredibly strong and beautiful, like a diamond.

All of that pressure you take on
You carry a lot of weight on your shoulders, but you handle it well.

Baby who knew you’d be so strong
Despite the pressure, you have sturdy strength and resilience.

The test of life ain’t easy to just walk through
Life can be difficult, and it's not something you can simply coast through.

But when you do you make it look so damn good
Despite the challenges, you handle everything like a pro, and it seems effortless.

When you’re living in your purpose
When you are living the way that you intended you to.

There are people who will only want to use you (use you)
Some people will only be interested in using you for their own gain.

You gotta know that you’re much greater
You need to realize that you are worth much more than simply being used by others.

And the most important thing is that you do you
The most important thing is that you stay true to yourself.

Tell the haters I’m doing fine
Let the people who criticize you know that you are doing well despite their negativity.

I don’t need no handouts this time
I am not looking for any favors or advantages this time.

I’m doing me and I’m being free
I am simply living my life the way that I want to and being true to myself.

And we say
We declare.

Oh, nana nana
A melodic vocalization.

Oh, nana nana nana
A longer melodic vocalization.

(I’m gon’ live my life)
I am going to live my life the way that I want to.

Oh, na oh na oh na
A rhythmic interlude.

Oh, oh
A melodic exclamation.
