My heart's been thumpin
Thinkin' bout our lovin'
Crampin' on the problems
Tearin' up the covers
But it's blood on the buttons
Always gonna be somethin'
Crampin' on the problems
Tearin' up the covers

Now I'm beaming right up and I'm beaming right up
And I'm beaming right cuz I been takin'
Strides, life's alright, when you got it going
Strides, life's alright, when you got it going

Take my time
Slow down and roll my rhyme
Pin the donkey on the tail
Take a shot right between the eyes

And now I'm beaming right up and I'm beaming right up
And I'm beaming right up cuz I been takin'
Strides, life's alright, when you got it going
Strides, life's alright, when you got it going

One minute good
The bad is in the mail
Like a one night stand
She's flying off the rails
Keep your foot on the gas
We've upgraded from last
And the money's been applied to your bank as a recurring bonus

Beaming right up and I'm beaming right up
And I'm beaming right up cuz I been takin'
Beaming right up and I'm beaming right up
And I'm beaming right up cuz I been takin'
Strides, life's alright, when you got it going
Strides, life's alright, when you got it going
Strides, life's alright, when you got it going
Strides, life's alright, when you got it going
