Discovering Life's Worth Through Mistakes: Goldstripes' 'Happens' Reflection
Lyrics
I make all the wrong decisions yah
I consistently make incorrect decisions.
Sometimes I should just shut up and listen (Listen) yeh
Sometimes, I should refrain from speaking and just listen.
If I hurt you not my intention
If I've caused you pain, it wasn't my intention.
I should just give without thinking what I'm given (Given)
I should be more generous without overthinking what I receive in return.
I should just live instead of thinking how I'm living
I should focus on living my life instead of constantly analyzing how I'm living.
I should have never doubted, doubted my position
I regret doubting my position or worth.
I should have prayed and, asked God for forgiveness
I should have prayed and sought forgiveness from God.
At least you made it, hope I'm worth the mission
Expressing hope that the other person finds their purpose or mission valuable.
You, just may be, the best thing that happens to me
Repeated affirmation that the person might be the best thing that happens to the speaker.
You, just may be, the best thing that happens to me
-You, just may be, the best thing that happens to me
-You, just may be, the best thing that happens to me
-Can't catch a break, I still feel broken
Feeling unable to catch a break and still emotionally hurt or damaged.
I stay fixed on addictions I use to cope
Dependence on coping mechanisms or addictions to deal with challenges.
Lost in the cloudy thoughts I'm smoking yuh
Feeling mentally clouded while indulging in thoughts, possibly due to substance use.
It's a long way back from where we'd both end up
Recognizing a challenging journey to repair a relationship or situation.
All you do is show up
Noticing the consistent presence of the other person.
These days, I'm benefitting from you
Currently benefiting or gaining from the relationship.
Choose, Choose what I care about yah
Choosing carefully what matters or is significant.
When I'm doing good, I'm never touching ground you yah
When things are going well, feeling uplifted and never grounded.
You, just may be, the best thing that happens to me (Best thing)
Repeated affirmation that the person might be the best thing that happens to the speaker.
You, just may be, the best thing that happens to me (Best thing)
-You, just may be, the best thing that happens to me
-You, just may be, the best thing that happens to me
