Better

It ain’t always gonna be sunny outside
Sometimes you find yourself right smack dab in the middle of a dark cloud
That seems to stick around for a
And while everybody’s smiling, you find yourself wondering
Why it happens to you and only you and never them
But right around the corner there’s a place where you’ll find
Yourself thinking, «Wow!»
If only I then what I know now
Yeah
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better it gets better baby)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better, yeah, it gets better)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better it gets better baby)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better, yeah, it gets better)
To my single mama’s working hard to provide
To my young brothers hustling trying to survive
Oh yeah this is for my students worried about tuition, attendance
Scraping up past rent
And we know money ain’t always the issue
'Cuz heartache and heartbreak
Hate you’s, I-miss-you's
And the loss of loved ones cut the deepest
It’s hard living on when you’ll never see them
But right around the corner there’s a place where you’ll find
Yourself thinking, «Wow!»
If only I then what I know now
Yeah
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better it gets better baby)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better, yeah, it gets better)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better it gets better baby)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better, yeah, it gets better)
So hold on and let go (na na na na)
Hold on and let go of the past (na na na na)
Hold on to hope and let go
(You ain’t gotta worry 'bout a thing)
Hold on and let go of the pain… of the pain
Right around the corner there’s a place where you’ll find
Yourself thinking, «Wow!»
If only I then what I know now
Yeah
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better it gets better baby)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better, yeah, it gets better)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better it gets better baby)
It gets better, whoa-ohh (it gets better, yeah, it gets better)
(background vocals while repeats)
It gets better, yeah, it gets better
Better better better, it gets better better
Better better better, it gets better, yes, it gets better
Better better better, it gets better better
Better better better, it gets better, yes, it gets better
