Smoking while applying a tattoo is not very fun, your eyes magnetize the 2nd hand smoke and blindess ensues.

I was actually extracting bone marrow for an experiment i’ve been experimenting.

Cloning is the new flat iron for dudes.

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

I’m sorry I don’t have the strength to type. My head is unraveling. This song is the only way for me to express were i’m at right now. I’ve been sick. Curled up in my bed. Stuck in Las Vegas. Fear and Loathing would be putting it lightly. I’ll be back…..

TRIAL and ERROR.KEEPER’s and TOSSERS. I’m sifting through beats again, one of my favorite parts of the process. “MY BEST FRIENDS GIRL” with Dane Cook is keeping me company but i can’t help but to stop every 15 minutes or so and scream at the TV about how much this movie sucks and how not funny Dane Cook is.FUUUUUCK!!! NO PARTIES FOR TRAVIE and im completely content in my room in my underpants with my laptop with the heat turned up to UNBEARABLE, sorry about last night Sara and Nicole, I’ve figured out the climate control, This one’s INTENTIONAL. Alright back to work……….

Open Happiness was created in the spirit of dedication and collaboration with artists and producers from across the US. It turned Coke’s famous “5-note tune” into a full length song. Butch Walker oversaw the recording of Travis McKoy and Brendon Urie in NYC, Cee-Lo and Janelle Monae in Atlanta, and Patrick Stump in LA. Butch Walker and Polow Da Don came together to mix multiple versions of the single, and add additional recordings. This continent-wide collaboration is now realized in Open Happiness.

VERSE ONE

ahhh..ohhh
Well hello is this thing on
Is anybody listening
A brand new day has begun

The first thing that I want do
Make sure that you feel it too
So I’m not the only one

CHORUS

Cmon lift me up (its a brand new day)
Open up a lil happiness today
So I can be someone new
Cmon and lift me up (to a better way)
Open up a smile on another face
So I can (feel something new)

Open up some happiness
Open up some happiness
Open up some happiness

VERSE TWO

Ahem*Ahem* let me clear my throat
So you can hear clearly every word spoke
Today I woke feeling lovely
Happiness overflowin knowin somebody loves me
Just think yesterday I was down and out
Now there’s not a single thing for me to frown about
And the same thing can happen to you
Smiling so hard my mouth look like a capital U

VERSE THREE

I want the sun to shine
All the time
Is that too much to ask
Oh, I want to have some fun
I want all my friends to come
Cause it’s now or never
Learn the words and sign together

CHORUS REPEAT

Cmon lift me up (its a brand new day)
Open up a lil happiness today
So I can be someone new
Cmon and lift me up (to a better way)
Open up a smile on another face
So I can (feel something new)

Open up some happiness
Open up some happiness
Open up some happiness

BRIDGE

Your heart deserves your trust
A choice made for all of us
The sun will come back tomorrow
There’s a message in a bottle
So come on I’ll meet you there
There’s enough sunshine to share
As long as you know
The bridge between us is a rainbow

CHORUS REPEAT

Cmon lift me up (its a brand new day)
Open up a lil happiness today
So I can be someone new
Cmon and lift me up (to a better way)
Open up a smile on another face
So I can (feel something new)

Open up some happiness
Open up some happiness
Open up some happiness

THE KIDS ARE ALL FUCKED UP…….This was me the first time i ever did K, thanks Korin,hahahahahaha.

Back in in the M-I-YAY....

So, I’m back in Miami, locked up in The Hit Factory, working on what we’ll call THE LAZARUS PROJECT for now. Put one to bed last night, it’s called “Bad All BY Myself”. Just layed the most retarded hook ever for it 5 minutes ago. Last night i got a glimpse and realized why Pain is where he’s at. He’s AN ANIMAL. MARATHON STUDIO SESSIONS! 11am until 8 or 9 am the next day. I’m adjusting. I dipped out a little early(3am,which is real early on Pain clock,hahaha) to catch up on some well needed sleep after Play and Skillz Grammy party in Dallas a couple nights ago. The party was INTENSE. Bun-B, Slim Thugg, Paul Wall, Too-Short and Slim from 112 al came through and performed. Dejesus got some dope footage. Definatley a memorable one. Shout out to the homies Play and Skills for their Grammy Nom for “Got Money” off the Carter III album. Dallas shows them so much love and they give it right back. This record is shaping up to be that big glass of Lemonade you’ll need this summer when the heatwaves strike. I’m so proud and it’s only getting better everyday. stay tuned…..Thirst Buckets!!
