Alles Gut from Another Somethin' by JND/jas0nbeats

(1)
Alles Gut ja? - ha.. Far from it /
Got me feeling like I'm clinging to the car bonnet /
Of a speeding driver caught within a police chase /
Throwing punches, but none are hitting these days /

I could dream of plain sailing seven seascapes /
But on the real I feel the pain, I guess my weak state /
Got me hanging by a thread, tryna swing from it /
And when we face the darkness, you can take a swing at it /

My mother says there's not pockets in shrouds /
But I'm still tryna save for the rainy days searching me out /
And every drop that falls to earth from the clouds /
Seems to hit me on it's way to the ground / Alles Gut, right? /

Not really, write it here coz I don't talk to folks /
Few I trust get to listen to my stupid thoughts /
A problem shared and all of that /
But I don't wanna air the awkward facts /
Coz while I'm spinning plates before they're falling flat /

I need paper ones or something to avoid the crash /
Just as my world falls apart on me and all that jazz /
That comes with it, acting like it's no threat /
As if the troubles here are simply in my own head /

And yet I'm looking, knowing I aren't fixing that /
Tryna ease your pain in any way I flipping can /
And to say I've got your back I guess is irony /
And when I look you in the eye, I hope the pain I hide in't seen /

(chorus)
But Life in't so bad /
Got air in my lungs /
A beat in my heart /
The sound of the drums.. it just hurts sometimes /

(2)
Sometimes the words are hard to find when I search for them /
When I'd like to fight the hurt within, pen to paper's always served me then /
Better that, I guess, than other things /
Told you drink and drugs help the rest, but, me, I turn to this /

Clinging on so hard never seemed to hurt my grip before /
But now it seems I'm slippin' more, where's that crystal ball /
Need to check the future, certainly I'm fallin' down /
Mate, Alles Gut? Nah it's not, that's why my thoughts are clouded /

And I can force a smile in front of those who matter most /
And it's to those I'd like to raise a glass to have a toast /
Wealth, not so much, health for a certainty /
All the rest come after that, an understated surplus we /

Hope to maintain it, till we're grey and old /
And if you could, would you live forever, maybe so /
Or maybe not, it could drive you crazy coz /
The way it's going would be torment till the day it stopped /

They do say it gets worse, before it gets better /
I hope so, coz if it doesn't, well, my heads messed up /
Enough as it is, yet to figure out the crux or the twist /
Why on earth we're summoned to this /

Place - I'll never understand it, just tryna show some love /
Coz it's a gift your here, despite the shit that comes along /
To wreak havoc with you, even on a sunny day /
Enjoy it while you can, while it lasts, that's the only way /
