Dante Bowe – Joyful
LYRICS
Joyful (yeah, haha, yeah, yeah)
Joyful (today, today)
Said I woke up to the summer shining through
Calling all my friends, asking what’s the mood
Feeling a little different, I’m on something new (today, today)
I ain’t gon’ let no clouds get in my way
The only road I’m walkin’ is the one I pave
Catch me sittin’ in the sun, no time for shade (today, today)
Ooh, this is the day that the Lord has made
Ooh, and I ain’t gon’ let it slip away
I’m gonna be joyful (joyful)
Yes, I am
Yes, I am
I’m gonna be joyful today (joyful, today today)
I’m gonna be joyful (joyful)
Ooh, I’m gonna be, I’m gonna, gonna be joyful (joyful, today, today)
Uh, I get that feeling that you get when you get new kicks
Bell ringing on the last day of senior year
High-fiving everybody but we outta here (today, today)
So fast, life comes and goes
Make it last, best slow your roll
They don’t take it, that’s a choice but you gotta know
That today’s the day
Ooh, this is the day that the Lord has made
Ooh, and I ain’t gon’ let it slip away, nah
I’m gonna be joyful (joyful)
Ooh
Gonna be, I’m gonna be joyful today (joyful, today today)
I’m gonna be joyful (joyful)
Yes, I am
Yes, I am
I’m gonna be joyful (joyful)
Today, today
I got the joy, joy
Down in my heart
Down in my heart
Down in my heart
I got the joy, joy
Down in my heart
Down in my heart
Down in my heart
I got the J-O-Y
Down in my heart
Down in my heart
Down in my
I got the joy, joy
Down in my heart
Today, today
“Joy is so different than happiness. While happiness is that temporary feeling created by circumstance, joy isn’t based on anything other than truth,” Bowe observes. “You can be in a bad place or sad situation and still have joy, knowing that greater things are coming and the moment you are in is not the end.”
