My father told me
"Can't wake up happy every day
Can't have the sun without the rain
Can't have the moments when you're truly on top of the world
Without the moments when you're down in the dirt"
It's something they don't really teach you in school
'Bout anxiety, depression and the weight of the world
We're all looking for some gratification
A little love, a little validation, that's why
I'm glad I found someone like you
To see the sadness and the truth
I'm glad I found someone like you
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I feel your touch deeper than my skin
Every chemical rushin' in
Now I've found your love, I'm comin' up again
Like serotonin, serotonin
Like a pill takes off the edge
Like a smoker's last cigarette
Now I've found your love, I'm comin' up again
Like serotonin, serotonin

My father told me
"Can't wake up happy every day
When you run a big budget tryna drink champagne
Can't have the moments where you're feeling you're on top of the world
Without the moments where you're feeling like the scum of the earth"
Come and observe, what we want is to be loved and accepted
Respected, first name's up on the guest list
Rolexes and a Lexus, I am not being pressed with
Cigarettes lit while whipping in Benzes, pathetic
I feel your touch deeper than my skin
Every chemical rushin' in
Now I've found your love, I'm coming up again
Like serotonin, serotonin
Like a pill takes off the edge
Like a smoker's last cigarette
Now I've found your love, I'm comin' up again

Serotonin, serotonin
