We indulge in excess in our own pursuit of happiness only because it is the beginning of happiness and we think it will lead us to the ultimate.On the album, the track is titled ' Pursuit of Happiness (Nightmare)', following the album's dream sequence.

that the pursuit of happiness is somewhere else, rather than at the end of the path to unlimited money, unlimited women (or men, depending), and unlimited partying, excessively. leading to the only inevitable conclusion. Only way to understand this song, is to imagine yourself as a person with everything and invited to every high profile party known, and still not getting much out of it. The last little scene in the bathroom of Kid Cudi seeing himself and then crashing through the mirror, or the reflection of what he seems himself as, is almost alchemical in it's message. It's a beautiful song by someone considered to be 'on-top' of the world, but still searching for a deeper meaning of life. Between money, drugs, and an endless pursuit of 'good times,' or what we perceive to be happiness (a party), all these things still leave people feeling empty or in search of happiness. It rolls with a lot of cliches but it's talking about more than what's right in front of the person and what they are chasing. It's a song of those that are lost looking for their own happiness, between the video and the lyrics (especially the ones at the end of the song). You can feel it (feelin' it, feeling like two A.M.), you think you know it (driving drunk, doin' my thing), but you are still not sure what it is. Song MeaningThe song is about a pursuit of happiness (duh, right?) But more specifically about looking for it but not knowing what you're looking for. Why did I drink so much and smoke so much? Ugh
