We all gotta go someday
Until that day Imma soak sunrays
Ride airplanes up and down runways
And show love to the people that love me
I’m not getting bothered by these little problems
Or letting nonsense eat up at my conscience
I’m just gonna rock this life of mine
And make the most out of my time
So if you don’t wanna see me shine (yeah)
You’ll be another one I leave behind (yeah)
But if you’re mine Imma hold you tight (yeah)
And there’s no limits to what we can find (yeah)
Rise up to occasions, enough with the patience
Book off your day shift, take a vacation
Life’s a celebration, no validation needed
But in case you need a reason
Life’s too short for the small stuff
So let 'em call us whatever they call us We don’t wanna stare at the sun no more
Stare at the sun no more
Life’s too short for the hatred
Every worry is another thought wasted
We don’t wanna hide or run no more
Hide or run no more
We don’t wanna we don’t wanna stare at the sun, no We don’t wanna we don’t wanna hide or run, no We don’t wanna we don’t wanna bite our tongue no more
Life’s too short for the small stuff (small stuff x4)
So let 'em call us whatever they call us (call us x4)
I’m singing so long to my enemies
I’d rather hold on to my energy
No no, you can bet I’m not intimidated
I just focus on what counts, I’m innovative
Please know I have nothing to prove
One life, one chance, and nothing to lose
I refuse to follow the rules given to me, see
Working in the box isn’t living to me You can flow with the river or you can swim upstream
You can throw in the towel or you can live your dream
You can fly with the owls, you can swim in the sea
As long as you find peace with the powers that be We must focus on what means the most to us Take our loved ones and squeeze 'em close to us Lift your glass up and raise a toast to us Here’s to happiness, family, health, and love
Because you can always make more money
But it won’t help you when the sky’s not sunny
When the dark clouds roll, we start to glow
With a brightness full of heart and soul
Rise up to occasions, enough with the patience
Book off your day shift, take a vacation
Life’s a celebration, no validation needed
But in case you need a reason
Life’s too short for the small stuff
So let 'em call us whatever they call us We don’t wanna stare at the sun no more
Stare at the sun no more
Life’s too short for the hatred
Every worry is another thought wasted
We don’t wanna hide or run no more
Hide or run no more
We don’t wanna we don’t wanna stare at the sun, no We don’t wanna we don’t wanna hide or run, no We don’t wanna we don’t wanna bite our tongue no more
Life’s too short for the small stuff (small stuff x4)
So let 'em call us whatever they call us (call us x4)
Life’s too short for the small stuff (small stuff x4)
