Is something wrong?
'Cause you seem mighty low
Tell me what's going on
Probably been there before
Sit up and fix your face
You see me, I'm okay
We ain't got time today
Throw on your darker shades and
Smile for the camera
I want you to know
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
Keep it up
I see you holding on
But it was easy, no?
Now you feel all alone
Quit praying, ease your pain
Gon' be here either way
Nowhere to place the blame
So put your make up on and
Smile in the mirror
I want you to know
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
Your inner strength is the reason you haven't said a word
But your counting has revealed the bad day that you've endured
It's probably not the first and not the last to be assured
The past is fleeting the future, a promise present keeping us moving forward
With hope we seek true happiness throughout our lives with
The trials we face bring pain and sorrow, but resistance are your strength
The easy path rarely leads to what our heart truly desires
In this life we must face many a worthy challenge for the outcome to satisfy us
To win inspite of struggle implies much greater magnification
To ones honor which I value more than instant-gratification
So believe me when I say that time can heal most any wound
And ease most pain, yet the scars remain until the day we lay in tomb
So please know nothing in this moment is the same as a moment ago
Each one that pass is a treasure lost
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that that it gets)
Tomorrow's not in your hands
That's why I pray to the man
And nothings ever gets to make plans in advance
One day at a time
I burn the saints for all the negative paid no mind
I'm at ease with the struggles they're better with time
Need not remind
Tomorrow's not in your hands
Neither is control
Nigga, reap what you sow
And pay it in full
Think before you burn the bridge
Paying the toll
Just play your role
So much pressure in the world I started my gnashing teeth
Hit the gas so hard I blew a gas and leak
Drank me for what I got like a nasty leech
You'll find hard earned lesson just by asking a teach'
Life is what you make it, take it how you gon' take it
My ground is solid and no earthquake could not shake it
Ain't waiting on no nothing not no reparations, heavily meditating
But it gets better with time, I'm sober now, no alcohol to hide behind
I grow older and grow bolder
I move mountains and move boulders
I cross borders, don't take orders
And thank God that's important
