I got a new attitude and a lease on life
And some peace of mind
Seek and I find I can sleep when I die
Wanna piece of the pie, grab the keys to the ride
And shit I'm straight
I'm on my wave, I'm on my wave
Get out my wake, I'm running late, what can I say?
I heard you die twice, once when they bury you in the grave
And the second time is the last time that somebody mentions your name
So when I leave here on this earth, did I take more than I gave?
Did I look out for the people or did I do it all for fame?
Legend, it's exodus searching for euphoria
Trudging through the mud to find the present, no ignoring us
Got 20, 000 deep off in the street like we some warriors
My mama told me never bow your head, woo!

I feel glorious, glorious
Got a chance to start again
I was born for this, born for this
It's who I am, how could I forget?
I made it through the darkest part of the night
And now I see the sunrise
Now I feel glorious, glorious
I feel glorious, glorious

I'm feeling glorious
The crib looking Victorian (oh yes it is)
You know that we been going in (been going in)
Since we hopped out that Delorean (Delorean, yeah we win)

En garde, things are just things
They don't make you who you are

She would hope, she would pray, she was waiting it out

Holding on to a dream

While she watches these walls fall down

Sharp words like knives, they were cutting her down

Shattered glass like the past, it's a memory now -simile.

Holding on to a dream

While she watches these walls fall down

Hey mom, hey dad

When did this end?

Where did you lose your happiness? -rhetorical question.

I'm here alone inside of this broken home

Who's right, who's wrong

Who really cares?

The fault, the blame, the pain's still there

I'm here alone inside of this broken home, this broken home

Wrote it down on the walls, she was screaming it out

Made it clear, she's still here, are you listening now?

Just a ghost in the halls

Feeling empty, they're vacant now

All the battles, all the wars, all the times that you've fought

She's a scar, she's the bruises, she's the pain that you brought

There was life, there was love

Like a light and it's fading out

Hey mom, hey dad

When did this end?

Where did you lose your happiness?

I'm here alone inside of this broken home

Who's right, who's wrong

Who really cares?

The fault, the blame, the pain's still there

I'm here alone inside of this broken home, this broken home

You've gotta let it go, you're losing all your hope

Nothing left to hold, locked out in the cold

You painted memories then washed out all the scenes

I'm stuck in between a nightmare and lost dreams

Hey mom, hey dad

When did this end?

Where did you lose your happiness?

I'm here alone inside of this broken home

Hey mom, hey dad

When did this end?

Where did you lose your happiness?

I'm here alone inside of this broken home

Who's right, who's wrong

Who really cares?

The fault, the blame, the pain's still there

I'm here alone inside of this broken home

This broken home

“Feeling good” is the title as well as what we found to be a theme of the song. There is a huge emphasis on the theme of Nature due to constant reference to animals, natural settings and insects. This theme coexists with the image of freedom and personal connection. 

“You know how I feel” is repeated throughout the song, accompanied by an animal or inanimate object. 

“Stars when you shine, you know how I feel”.

“Fish in the sea, You know how I feel”.

Chorus: Very simple, slow chorus. Very strong beat drop followed by a nice transition to the next verse. Strong sense of repetition on “It's a new ___”, said thrice each chorus except at the end when it is repeated furthermore. “Im feeling good” is the last line in the chorus as well as a direct reference to the title.

The main technique and theme is repetition, especially during mentions of nature. “Fish in the sea, you know how I feel,” personification used.

Verse 1: Main focus is on the sky. “Birds flying high”, “Sun”, “Breeze”. Strong references to elements and nature. Repetition, like in most of the verses, is very prevalent in verse one. For example, “You know how I feel.” is repeated three times in this verse, and “I’m feeling good.” is repeated twice. This constant repetition is probably prevalent to emphasise how good he feels. 

Verse 2:  Focus on the sea. “Fish”, “River”. “Running free” symbolises the freedom that nature offers + happiness. Rhyme is very prevalent in this verse, for example, the lines “River running free” and “Blossom on a tree”. This is used to add a musical quality to the song.

Verse 3: Bugs, creatures, dragonflies, butterflies. General reference to the smaller creatures symbolising how little it takes to feel joy. Longest verse so far due to the conjunction of themes with “world and earth”. An oxymoron is present in this verse “And this old world is a new world”, as well as internal rhyme “And this old world-” “And this bold world-”.

Verse 4: Stars and freedom. Weak, short filler verse. Personification is present in this verse “Stars when you shine, you know how I feel.”, probably to show how obvious how he is feeling is to everyone around him.

Final Chorus: Extended, plenty of repetition. Quite a summary of everything knowing “how I feel”. We get a clearer image of the coexistence between freedom/longing for freedom and nature, along with his personal connection with both themes.
