Miller sampled “Lord Finesse’s” carefree and unique sounding beat from his hit song, “Hip 2 da Game”, which ended up losing Miller 10 million dollars in a copyright infringement lawsuit in the coming year. This song projects a nonchalant, but determined message about progressing through the ranks of the rap game with lyrics like “I been climbing up the Great Wall, haven't had a fall yet / These blogs gotta know I'm on next.” This song is written with all the arrogance and laid-back attitude present in a teenage boy, as well as topics that most everyone can relate to, because who doesn’t love Kool Aid and Frozen Pizza? 4. “Best day ever” is the first track on Mac Miller's 5th mixtape, released in 2016, with the same title. However, the song has two versions, one of which, titled “BDE bonus” was performed on a live album, Live from Space before the song “Best Day Ever” was released, which featured the same lyrics from “BDE Bonus” but a different, and more uplifting beat. Regardless of which beat is used, this track features the famous, optimistic chorus “No matter where life takes me, find me with a smile / Pursuit to be happy, only laughing like a child,” lyrics which unfortunately could not have been further from how Miller was really feeling at the time this song was released.
