about

'The Good Times' is a song that highlights the problem with negative outside influence and how it stops you from achieving your goals and dreams. There comes a point where you have to say enough is enough and you must take control of your path.

I truly hope you enjoy this song as much I enjoyed writing sand recording it.

lyrics

| Lyrics |

There isn't a soul alive,
Who hasn't thought about giving up,
Too many times we've been told,
That our best just ain't good enough,
Well I've been knocked down,
But I got back up and,
I started all over again,
If you want it better go out and get it,
Before the haters try to pull you in.

I've made up my mind,
I'm through with standing in line,
I know that now is my time,
To let the sun shine.

I'm leaving on a jet plane,
Bound for glory at the speed of light,
I'm leaving all the shit behind,
Because tomorrow is a brand new fight,
Well it's been too long,
Since I felt like myself,
So it's time to do what I wanna do,
No time for faking just love and hip-shaking,
And somebody that'll help you through.

I've made up my mind,
I'm through with standing in line,
I know that now is my time,
To let the sun shine.

These are the good times,
These are the good times,
These are the good times,
These are the good times,
These are the good times,
These are the good times,
These are the good times,
These are the good times.
