Low Lights, High Hopes

Celebrate

Celebrate

Celebrate

Celebrate

Yeah, yeah

They say it's black and white

I've been looking through the grey

Trying to find a little truth

In the games they make us play

I've been thinking it's time

We finally realize

We've been living in a lie

Trying to buy a better life

I can't only trust the highs

So I put it in the rhymes

For the ones who feel passive

But got passion in their minds

Too much negativity

I just pass it off

I've been grinding hard

Yeah, I'm doing my job

Waking up minds

Setting off alarms

Trying to bring peace

Without losing my calm

Cause karma comes around

Not like shots in the night

More like what you become

When you waste your whole life

So I'm changing the prize

Had to change up the signs

Had to question what they taught

Just to free up my mind

I got papers, I'm fine

They say they're worth a lot

But a framed-up degree

Don't mean you own your thoughts

I'm just trying to celebrate

Made it through another day

Low lights, high hopes

Still, I find a way

I'm just trying to celebrate

Even when the skies are grey

And want to fade away

But can't escape

Celebrate

Oh-oh oh-oh oh

Celebrate

Celebrate

Oh-oh oh-oh oh

Find a way

Find a way

Oh-oh oh-oh oh

Celebrate

Celebrate

Oh-oh oh-oh

Yeah

They talk degrees and diplomas

Like they know what we're worth

Like a title on paper

Gives a soul to the work

But I been under that pressure

Still, I stay on my path

Had to question the system

Had to do my own math

Skipping class in my head

'Cause my thoughts move fast

Turning rough little drafts

Into things that might last

I don't want to compete

I don't need to be him

I just need a little light

When the whole world dims

One beat one page

One reason to write

One late-night thought

That could turn into light

We been stuck in survival

Trying to call it a life

Working hard for a cheque

Still searching for why

But I won't feel low

For the dreams that I chase

If we made it this far

That's enough to celebrate

I'm just trying to celebrate

Made it through another day

Low lights, high hopes

Still, I find a way

I'm just trying to celebrate

Even when the skies are grey

And want to fade away

But can't escape

I'm just trying to celebrate

Made it through another day

Low lights, high hopes

Still, I find a way

I'm just trying to celebrate

Even when the skies are grey

And want to fade away

But can't escape

Celebrate

Oh-oh oh-oh oh

Celebrate

Celebrate

Oh-oh oh-oh oh

Find a way

Celebrate

Oh-oh oh-oh oh

Celebrate

Celebrate

Oh-oh oh-oh

Find a way
