Fight The Feeling
Mac Miller Lyrics

Uh, close your eyes
Get ready to listen and absorb the message in the following lyrics.

So watch 'em do the Macarena, somewhere out by Pasadena
People just follow trends mindlessly regardless of how absurd it may seem.

Love a drug that everybody here just tryna get a taste of
Love is a potent force that everyone seeks to experience.

You a waste of the space that you take up
You are not making the most of your life.

Livin', this time around I'm not kiddin'
I'm serious and committed about living my life to the fullest.

I had an intuition about these women and suspicions
I have a gut feeling about the motives of the women I encounter.

Got me lookin' at you different, how I'm a man in my position
I'm questioning your intentions based on the status and perception of myself as a man and artist.

Can't stop slippin' down these slopes
I can't seem to stop the negative events or situation that keep occurring in my life.

'Cause it's all just downhill from there
The situation keeps getting worse or more intense as time goes on.

As a kid I didn't learn that, but now I'm aware
I lacked understanding of this when I was younger, but now I'm wiser.

When you were young and you just tryna live your life and have some fun
Life was just about having fun and enjoying the moment when I was younger.

In a world where you have yet to see how evil it's become
As you grow, you become aware of how cruel the world can be.

It's hard to have a dream when you deep inside of one
It's easy to get lost in a dream, and pursuing it can be challenging.

And I know you hate them spirits so I keep em in my lungs
I know you disapprove of my smoking, but it helps me cope with my emotions or feelings better.

I'm a Beatle to these young kids
I am a role model and icon for the younger generation like the Beatles were.

But sometimes I be feelin' like a needle to these young kids
I feel like I'm influencing or exposing young kids to negative behavior or experiences.

You had the world, you about to leave it to these young kids
The older generation has left a lot for the younger ones to sort out or inherit.

And we gonna show you what the love is
We will demonstrate a different kind of love, one that is not based on fame or money.

Stay high, go for what you know
Stay positive and pursue what you are confident in.

Let it in your mental
Allow positive thoughts and energy to dominate your thinking process.

And don't ever let it go
Hold on to that positive thinking and energy.

It won't stop
The positive energy and drive will persist and grow.

You can't fight the feeling
It's impossible to resist or halt the positivity and progress being made.

You can't fight the feeling, no
It's not worth trying to resist the inevitable positive outcome.

Uh, and I keep a couple most dope homies by me
I have good people around me as my friends.

So there ain't too many times it's me, myself and Irene
I rarely find myself alone, I always have my friends with me.

We stay smokin' through the night wake up, do some Tai Chi
We smoke weed all night long and practice Tai Chi in the morning for balance.

Homie can't you see I'm chillin, please don't fuck up my Chi
I'm trying to relax and maintain a peaceful state, please don't disrupt me.

Yea my jacket Y three, recently been up on fashion
My jacket is a Y-3 brand, and lately I've been more aware of fashion trends.

Waste a bunch of money, kinda stinks of sastisfaction
Spending money recklessly may feel good in the moment, but it's not a sustainable way of life.

Fell asleep in Hollywood, woke up in Manhattan
Life moves fast, and significant events or memories can be lost in the blur.

Ballin' like I'm Jordan, but I'm fresh as Mars Blackmon
I feel like a millionaire like Michael Jordan, but I'm not as flashy.

A penny for your thoughts, a dollar for your dreams
What you think is not as valuable or important as what you dream or aspire to be.

A price on an idea, we never can agree
Everyone has their own value system and cannot come to a consensus on the worth of things.

They tell you what to know, but it's better to believe
People can inform you what is right, but it's better to have your own belief system.

So why you tryna act like what you never gonna be?
Why act like you're something you know you'll never become?

Still I tell 'em fuck what you know, I'm feelin' comfortable
I ignore the naysayers and critics and follow my feeling of comfort and confidence.

Just continue livin' life, 'cause enough of 'em don't
Keep living your life to the fullest, because some people may not get the chance.

You spent your days countin' every single penny made
You wasted your time keeping track of every insignificant penny earned.

Restore it now, 'cause we comin' for you anyways
Correct that negative behavior, because you will eventually face consequences for it.

Sometimes I wake up, up in the mornin', make up
Sometimes I wake up and get caught up in trivial things.

Wipe the smudge of makeup off my bed soon as she's gone and
Clean up the mess left behind by someone's presence or influence.

Take up hours out my day just do find power, shit to say
Spend time searching for creativity and things to speak or rap about.

But you won't hear it, even if your ears was pierced with Beats by Dre
People may not listen or appreciate my music, even if they had the best headphones.

I mean, the sun is slowly fallin'
Life is coming to an end or changing.

We all surely should die eventually, so what's your callin'?
Death is inevitable, so how do you want to spend the time you have left?

Oh, you left your phone behind, identity
Your phone is a part of your identity, and forgetting it can be disorienting.

Crisis, break mirrors, vices steer us through wickedness
During difficult times, we often turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms or habits.

Jesus Christ is right near us and devil say you owe ten percent
Spirituality and faith can help us overcome life's difficulties, but greed can also be a powerful influence.

Sold your soul, I know, sold your soul and you're hopeless
When you sell out and compromise your values, it can leave you feeling lost and empty.

My focus, stare at elopin' on boats that float in the open
My focus is on enjoying life's simple pleasures and finding peace in solitude.

On oceans that coast the line on the margins I rhyme, chokin'
I find freedom and inspiration in the vastness of the ocean, even when I'm struggling to find the right words to write or rap.

Or Soakin' up game, I'm hopin'
I'm trying to learn from others and better myself through their experiences and wisdom.

You picked the second one, change the emotion of jealousy that you're holdin'
You have a choice to embrace love and positivity instead of clinging to negative emotions like jealousy.

You're telling me, that you're golden, but really cubic zirconia, let me see
You claim to be valuable and pure, but I see your flaws and imperfections.

I'll break you down like a pound of fire whenever
I'm capable of tearing you apart or exposing your lies at any moment.

Your tactics are mighty clever
Your strategies and actions are calculated and cunning, but they won't succeed.

But even if you Mayweather
Even if you're tough or skilled, you can't stop the inevitable outcome.

You can't fight the feeling, feeling
It's impossible to resist the good vibes and positive energy.

You can't fight the feeling, no
It's not worth trying to resist the inevitable positive outcome.

It won't stop
The positive energy and drive will persist and grow.

You can't fight the feeling, feeling
It's impossible to resist the good vibes and positive energy.

Oh, fuck me
An expression of frustration or stress.

Oh, I want you to fuck me
An expression of desire or lust for someone.

Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck, don't stop, oh
An expression of pleasure and enjoyment of the moment.
