Life Is Good - Akira the Don, Gary Vaynerchuk

Gratitude

On that 400-trillion-to-one thing

I’m grateful

Straight up, like I don’t know what to say

Like, you might’ve not been born

Right?

Like, your dad could’ve been late

To the apartment that day

On some real shit

Like I don’t think people would contextualize perspective like

What?

Like you’re alive

Like you’re alive

You could have been a tree

You could’ve been like, right

This is cool

Like, life is good

Life is good

Like, it’s cool to have one

It’s cool to have one

Life is good

(This is cool!)

Life is good

(This is cool!)

Like, it’s cool to have one

That’s number one

One of the biggest things for me

Is being the bigger person

I hate conflict

Ironically, like

I’m a tough guy

When I have the mic and nobody else can talk

But in real life

I like, like happiness

And vibes and like

I’ve eaten shit my whole life

Kid stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from me

In the liquor store

Like, I found a way for him not to go to jail

For a long time, like, you know

Like, just being the bigger person

Has been a core principle of mine

Not valuing money over family and, like, happiness

Has been huge, fuck money

Like really

Fuck money

You cannot care about money more when you don’t care

About what people think about your money

You know?

Life is good

Life is good

Like, it’s cool to have one

It’s cool to have one

Life is good

(This is cool!)

Life is good

(This is cool!)

Like, it’s cool to have one

That’s number one

Patience

Holy shit, I’m gonna live four more full lives

And no matter how crazy what I think about right now is

And, like, what I wanna accomplish on or off the field

I got four fucking lives to do it

You guys know Grey Goose?

The guy who invented that is an entrepreneur

Invented it at 78

78 years old

You know

That’s life

Like, you can do everything wrong

Have every dream you’ve ever had fucked up

Blame it on other people

The girl fucked it up

That injury fucked it up

Coach fucked it up

Blame everybody, have everything go wrong

Be 57 years old

And still have fucking 40 years to make it right

It’s crazy, honestly

Like, if there was some crazy new drug

That I could, like, inject in you

That gave you perspective of time

That’s the drug I would give you

Straight up

2x (Chorus)

Life is good

Life is good

Like, it’s cool to have one

It’s cool to have one

Life is good

(This is cool!)

Life is good

(This is cool!)

Like, it’s cool to have one

That’s number one

It makes you optimistic

People sitting here dwelling already

Dwelling already

«Fuck, I shouldn’t have come to Rutgers»

«Fucking knew it»

Of course, there’s people thinking that

Like, that’s just real life

Dwelling already

Haven’t even fucking started

Man, that’s what I wanna change

(Akira The Don)

Life is good

Life is good

Like, it’s cool to have one

It’s cool to have one

Life is good

Life is good

Like, it’s cool to have one

That’s number one
