I’m Having a Good Day
[Hook / Chorus]
I’m havin’ a good day (yeah!) sunshine in my soul (soul!),
Bad days lurkin’ but I’m still in control (still in control),
Flip pain to praise (praise!), watch the darkness fade (fade!),
Even when I fall down, my foundation stayed (stayed strong!).
I’m havin’ a good day (woo!), Lord carried me through (through),
Could’ve died back then, but He made me brand new (brand new),
From the bottle to the Bible (Bible!), I was lost in the maze (maze),
Now I see the truth clear — even bad days get saved (saved!).
[Verse 1]
They once said the world was flat (nah), blind to the facts (facts),
Millennia later, still repeat bad acts (uh-huh),
Good folks hurt, wicked ones still gain (why?),
I was drownin’ in a bottle just to numb that pain (too real).
Mama told me straight (listen!), “Boy, you stoned by noon (noon!),
What you runnin’ from? You gon’ meet death too soon (too soon).”
At nineteen reckless, twenty I was a mess (a mess), Her words in my ear kept me outta that stress (out the stress).
She said, “Maintain, don’t act out wild” (maintain!),
That voice in my head still raisin’ the child (raise me),
Now I’m standin’ here rappin’, tellin’ y’all the plan (the plan),
Bad days don’t break me, I just thank the Man (Amen!).
[Hook / Chorus]
I’m havin’ a good day (good day!), sunshine in my soul (soul!),
Bad days lurkin’ but I’m still in control (control!),
Flip pain to praise (praise!), watch the darkness fade (fade!),
Even when I fall down, my foundation stayed (strong!).
I’m havin’ a good day (woo!), Lord carried me through (through),
Could’ve died back then, but He made me brand new (brand new),
From the bottle to the Bible (Bible!), I was lost in the maze (maze),
Now I see the truth clear — even bad days get saved (saved!).
[Verse 2] Life ain’t a template (nah), no promise of tomorrow (facts),
My youth was a horror, filled with sorrow (sorrow),
Fourteen years old, I was supposed to die (die!),
But grace pulled me up, angels kept me alive (alive!).
Didn’t see His hand then, blind in the smoke (smoke),
But the Shepherd had a plan when the devil took a poke (he did),
Years later, I awake, perspective in my chest (my chest),
Somebody got it worse — so even broke, I’m blessed (I’m blessed).
Car wreck totaled (skrrt!), metal twisted in the rain (rain),
Still walked away, so I’m praisin’ through the pain (through the pain),
Trouble don’t define me (nah), storms don’t stay (nope),
I just whisper, “Thank you Lord, still a good day” (good day!).

I’m havin’ a good day (woo!), Lord carried me through .
Could’ve died back then, but He made me brand new (brand new),
From the bottle to the Bible (Bible!), I was lost in the maze (maze),
Now I see the truth clear — even bad days get saved.
