Better Days

Better Days
im counting down the days
working over night
tryin to find better ways
to better my life
and i know that this road
keeps turning and i dont know which way to go
im tired of being broke ive said it once ill say it again
dont you hate when your low on cash so low that you cant pay your rent?
cuz i do.
i hate that
you see me driving a maybach?
i dont think so
cuz im stuck driving this grey cab

im counting down the days
working over night
tryin to find better ways
to better my life
and i know that this road
keeps turning and i dont know which way to go
man im sick of this the pain i feel is ridiculous
envision this little boy that never fit in showed no interest
down wit his face in a notebook
tryin to write rhymes like yo look
i think this is it i love her
pictures on his wall all over
of rappers he looks up to
he went from hello to f*** you
his mood changed became strange
rap made him nuts so insane
i think i should try this
he says to himself
i really like this
maybe i can make this dream
of mine if i focus my iris
but wait a minute heres what they call an obstacle
my voice sounds too much like ugh
they musta seperated at the hospital
its a gift and a curse thats what i call it
dammit it hurts now an alcoholic
and every verse im thinkin
what woulda happen if i was put on first

im counting down the days
working over night
tryin to find better ways
to better my life
and i know that this road
keeps turning and i dont know which way to go
ive been through shit ive been through hell
so many tears ive shed for myself
ive had the good ive had the bad
more bad then good i hate the fact
but dammit i stuck to rap cuz man it
help me get back up from the granite
jump in air with a pump in my shoes
and i fell down STANDING
thats what i call a winner
a champion at heart
you fall u get back up and fight
and show them who you are
come on dennis get up !!
i said get up i know your fed up
come on dont you let up
its only time before things get better
maybe your right so ill hold it down
when i hold this mic im homeward bound
i gotta show my best when i throw it down
theres no demon out here that can hold me down
ive seen cash ive been po
ive been high ive been low
the greatest things ive seen go
so cherish what you have and keep it close
dont you cry itll be alright
wipe them tears look at the sky
you see the stars?
thats what you are
just look inside
you just gotta find it
its there behind that
dark cloud youve built inside you
just clear it n show the world dont hide it

im counting down the days
working over night
tryin to find better ways
to better my life
and i know that this road
keeps turning and i dont know which way to go
