Pinky Up
[Verse 1]
Glass half-full on the days when I'm empty
Bet you thought you did a number on me
Well, I'm sorry, heart may be a little broke and lonely
But I don't mind a little bit of lonely (Nah)
I'll just be sippin' lemonade from the lemons life gives me
Button down watermelon tee 'cause I'm feelin'
Better now, put that pessimism in the past
One finger off the glass
[Chorus]
I keep my pinky up to remind myself
That I'm still fancy
A little bit of lonely
Never killed nobody
Oh, I don't need no one
To make me happy
Thе sun is always shinin' above the clouds
I know I'll find someonе to love next time around
[Verse 2]
I keep the homies close to my heart like a necklace
I played my life like strings on a harp, only fretless
It's crazy how the dream fit together like it's Tetris
I'm out here playin' chess while everybody playin' checkers
I made this thing happen, but it wasn't overnight (Oh)
Hundred hour weeks, but ain't nobody hear me cry (Yeah)
Days of feelin' low, I thought that I had lost my mind (Woo)
I wish I could've told myself it all would be alright (Yeah)
That's just life, welcome to the ride (Woo)
It'll knock you 'round 'bout a hundred times (Woo)
But it could never out me
'Cause when I'm feelin' down
[Chorus]
I keep my pinky up to remind myself
That I'm still fancy
A little bit of lonely
Never killed nobody
Oh, I don't need no one
To make me happy
The sun is always shinin' above the clouds
I know I'll find someone to love next time around
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
