Joy

Joy
by Bilal
(to the tune of 'Riot!' by Earl Sweatshirt, 84 BPM)

nothing but bliss, when there’s not a worry on your mind
watching the sun rise, over a purple sky
finding your peace of mind, i wanted a piece of mine
feeling was so divine, no need to look behind

nowhere to go, only joy left to find
but that shit is so elusive it just be passing you by
on the wings of a butterfly
in the blink of an eye
where’s the joy if you sitting by, living a lie

MJ, cuz a young boy wanted to fly
G5, cuz a grown man wanted to fly
don’t even know what to look for, i can’t even find
the joy in my life or even where it resides

nothing to do but take it one step at a time, looking for joy, looking for peace of mind
