Better Days

[Verse 1: B. Cooper] Waking up in the morning, gotta thank God Another 24 hours with the same job Rent paid off, still got my lights on Revolution, time to write another fight song Cause I’m far from what the average is Some living lavish, others sleep on cardboard mattresses In a world filled with savages Trying to stay down like gravity, I get judged for being passionate Let me make it clear, as a transparency I’mma be real until the day that you bury me Ridiculed, you can point, laugh, stare at me I’ma still tell you there is a God that came to carry me And for that reason, for this season As far as needs, grace comes before breathing Made it through the fall, never had a plan of leaving I’m just here to share what I believe in [Hook: Anthony Mareo] I know that better days will come [Verse 2: JGIVENS] Whether it be the more silent the movement Jeremiah the student is dying to prove to the foolish Who inquire to the reason of why I do this Two wise to do this, right?

When that Range Rover with the flamethrower Takes the prophet Will I handle the mantle or will I drop it? I don’t know But I got hope That yesterday is always better than a Couple days ago [Hook] [Verse 3: B. Cooper] We all fight and strive to be perfect Live in the wild where there’s no churches Give everything that we got not to seem worthless Freedom for a spoiled child, we do not deserve it End up heart broken, once we got the verdict Words run together like we have been writing cursive We know God is working, but it’s hard to worship When behind every curtain there’s a lot of burden And I’ve heard that we’re promised we can handle it Emotions transparent, project through laminates Trying to let the light shine, like a candle wick Forgive my past, look at my present like Santa did But this is a whole lot more than what’s under the tree Words can’t describe what my father did for me His Son sent for me, to save me from misery A better day’s coming to rewrite our history [Hook] I know x4 I know that better days will come I know
