Kind of a niche reference, but one that’s been stuck in my head lately is Pedro the Lion’s “if I still say ‘here I am’ when something wakes me up at 4 AM … How could this be goodbye?”
You’re either looking 6 months into the future Or looking 10 years into the past Searching for answers in tough circumstances I just need something that lasts Give me something that lasts
I don't got HD TV but I got insulation
I got no Lamborghini's, but I got vaccinations
I got a microwave, I got some pocket change
And even if I didn't, dude, pssh, no complaints
Tonight if you see me knocking on wood
That's just because I'm doing so fucking good
I don't hate my life, no, it's going alright
That's why tonight you see me knocking on wood
Apologies for the extended quote. This whole song serves as a reminder that we always have something to be thankful for. There’s humor in it, but the sentiment is sincere and delivered in a catchy song.

Given and Denied - Poets of the Fall
"Give me back my innocence cos I wish to dream again
Like I never outgrew my old playground
Where the sun sets slowly with a golden crown and the leaves sing lullabies 'round vacant swings
Give me those wings"
And loneliness is my sweetest friend
The one that always knocks me down again
The truest thoughts to enter my brain
Come, a high, lonesome refrain
I’m lonelier than lonely
And no one on this earth can console me
