Celebrate

(album: Flat 10 - 2013)

Let's celebrate
You know I really wanna celebrate
Look, everybody's gotta celebrate
Let's toast to the good decisions that we never made, that we never made
Still, I wanna celebrate
I really hope that me and you can celebrate
Don't worry if you're feeling low, we can levitate
Let's celebrate, let's celebrate

I find nowadays, I celebrate less
They killed Osama, now we celebrate death
They killed Gadaffi and everybody was happy
Like we all became assassins, why it never made sense
It's really feeling like a ready-made mess
I don't know why we couldn't let em take breath
My mum's feeling mad pressure at her workplace
I wish that she could delegate stress, let her take less
But I wanna make a toast
And celebrate all the people I love the most
Cause there's been a couple highs, couple lows
Couple times I was struggling with life and they know
Yeah, but they were there really
I didn't have a lot, they were willing to share with me
They like it when I'm happy cause I'm me
And that's the type of guy I wanna be, so

Let's celebrate
You know I really wanna celebrate
Look, everybody's gotta celebrate
Let's toast to the good decisions that we never made, that we never made
Still, I wanna celebrate
I really hope that me and you can celebrate
Don't worry if you're feeling low, we can levitate
Let's celebrate, let's celebrate

I can't lie, I'm feeling blue
Cause I just saw Stephen Lawrence's mother on the news
And now she's seeking justice after such a long time
But she's saying that she can't celebrate and it's true
But was a life snatched by another five
Mother cried tears from the acts of the other guys
And I don't know why he really had to suffer, why?
And I can see the pain in his mother's eyes
But I don't wanna dwell on all the negatives
Bad things happen, I ain't acting like they never did
9/11, 7/7, I'm remembering
All of the pain, man, it's a shame they didn't get to live
But I ain't reminiscing for the hell of it
We've all got a story, I'm just one of many telling it
And I know I didn't value it at times
But I just wanna celebrate life

Let's celebrate
You know I really wanna celebrate
Look, everybody's gotta celebrate
Let's toast to the good decisions that we never made, that we never made
Still, I wanna celebrate
I really hope that me and you can celebrate
Don't worry if you're feeling low, we can levitate
Let's celebrate, let's celebrate

Don't let them tell you that you're worth nothing
Celebrate the fact that you're worth something
Forget the lies that you heard, you deserve more
Let's celebrate what we've worked for
