[Verse 1] Hey, you, with your head held high, well You got him real good, I hope it feels good Hey, you, trying so hard not to cry, well I know you're fed up, but keep your head up [Pre-Chorus 1] Cause people only see what they wanna People gon' believe what they gonna They don't understand the life that you choose They never walked a mile in your shoes, no, no, no, no So whatcha gonna do with the haters? Just gotta excuse their behavior But just don't give up hope I just want you to know [Chorus] Maybe today seems cloudy and gray So full of sorrow and tomorrow seems so far away But it gets better, it gets better But it gets better, it gets better And I know the world keeps throwing you strife But keep on strutting down this yellow-brick road called life Cause it gets better, it gets better Cause it gets better, it gets better Verse 2] Hey, you, wondering who you are, saying "There's something wrong here, I don't belong here" Hey, you, don't you know you've come so far And when there's nowhere to run to, I'll always love you [Pre-Chorus 2] But people only see what they wanna People gon' believe what they gonna They don't understand the way that you feel They never walked a mile in your heels, no, no, no, no So whatcha gonna do with your haters? Just gotta excuse their behavior But just don't give up yet Don't ever forget [Chorus] Maybe today seems cloudy and gray So full of sorrow and tomorrow seems so far away But it gets better, it gets better But it gets better, it gets better And I know the world keeps throwing you strife But keep on strutting down this yellow-brick road called life Cause it gets better, it gets better Cause it gets better, it gets better [Chorus] Maybe today seems cloudy and gray So full of sorrow and tomorrow seems so far away But it gets better, it gets better But it gets better, it gets better And I know the world keeps throwing you strife But keep on strutting down this yellow-brick road called life Cause it gets better, it gets better Cause it gets better, it gets better [Outro] Cause it gets better, it gets better
