Shear Genius Productions - Better Days lyrics

[Verse 1: SaeMonae] I try to keep my composure While the devil sits on my shoulder On my knees praying as the world gets colder Evil thoughts seem to rack my brain Because this life I once knew is no longer the same Things change people come and go That's just how it goes Nobody seems to know why And we don't question it Maybe until we're heaven sent The reason why we all die Some get comfortable They become stones in their lifestyles Just to make a statement They go out and buy a gla** house I'm throwing stones in mine just because I want out Unlearn their teachings See the world with my third eye Hear with my cerebellum Fly with the birds high Maybe then I'll be right by God Cause as of right now I'm not living life my God I keep telling myself to pick up that pen Start over again See myself with some friends Thoughts telling me: “This life ain't for you This ain't the purpose God sent you to But whatever it is he gone get you through And we gone see some better days until the sky is blue” [Chorus: SaeMonae] In due time The light will shine We gone see better days And things gone change (x4) [Outro: SaeMonae] Y'all wondering when them tapes gone drop I'm wondering when the hate gone stop If we all join hands Who they gone block Rebels aren't criminals We dodge locks (x2)
