Feeling desperate, feeling low,
Not sure where you can go,
Your emotions running deep,
Life in turmoil no time for sleep,
Pressure’s on, there’s no relief,
Everything just gives you grief,
Life’s in turmoil, perpetually,
No end in sight that you can see.
Things always seem so damn tough,
Can’t take much more, you’ve had enough,
Feel like your world is caving in,
Do you reach for that bottle of Gin?
Feeling down, feeling low,
Need a place that you can go,
Got to go, go and find,
The Soul Spaces in your mind.
Is it all coming to an end?
Will we find a way to mend?
All the damage that has been done,
Feel like were always on the run,
From our emotions and our mind,
Are we really out of time?
Is it in the stars for you and me?
Is it possible, we cannot see?
Life’s true course was always there,
But somehow it did not share,
The suffering that we would face,
Putting us in this bad place.
Feeling down, feeling low,
Need a place that we can go,
Got to go, go and find,
The Soul Spaces in our mind.
Can I find someone to love?
Oh please help me lord above,
Surely there must be,
A person in this world for me,
Is there any one out there that really cares?
Is there any way that I can share?
The pain, the anguish, that fills my soul,
Should happiness be my goal?
Am I asking way too much?
Sounds like I need an emotional crutch.
Am I acting to selfishly?
Is there no solution to my misery?
Feeling down, feeling low,
Need a place that I can go,
Got to go, go and find,
The Soul Spaces in my mind.
When I need a place to go,
When my mind is feeling low,
Got to go, go and find,
The soul spaces in my mind.

I just got hip to Kaidi's music. He has a very great ear! But I automatically fell in love with Feeling Happy once I've heard it. Shamika Sanders-Sykes
