lyrics

Chorus

Once upon a time I was once been told
Happiness is in a living small
But when I made my way in the Western world
Happiness is in a shopping mall (Repeats)

Mantist Verse 1

We had little but felt like we had it all Our house so small
With about four, five souls
But we never complain
We stood for a friend
But ever since I got here, thing starts to change
I keep on buy, buy, things that I don’t need
I keep on eyeing, eyeing, things on TV
And it’s getting to me
Slowly, slowly
Am loosing my way and it’s not okay
I wanna go back to the days
Back to the days, when happiness was in living small Happiness is in living small
Happiness is in living small

Chorus

Once upon a time I was once been told
Happiness is in a living small
But when I made my way in the Western world
Happiness is in a shopping mall (Repeats)

Steven Verse

They fill your head with greed and temptations
They plant a seed and you give it irrigation
They set you up in this race of possessions
They’ll make you run until you die of exhaustion

Chorus
Once upon a time I was once been told
Happiness is in a living small
But when I made my way in the Western world
Happiness is in a shopping mall.

Don’t wanna belonging for the things am not needing
Stress and greediness got my soul in distress
Don’t wanna be chasing all those material things
I gotta find happiness after this culture all mess

Chorus

Once upon a time I was once been told
Happiness is in a living small
But when I made my way in the Western world
Happiness is in a shopping mall.
