k-rino - gotta get better lyrics

[hook]

things gotta get better (things gotta get better)
we struggle everyday (we struggle everyday)
to find a solution (to find a solution)
and make a better way (and make a better way)

[verse 1]

the other night, i was watching snapped on tv
it was a repeat, but i was knee-deep in a storyline thinking that this could be me
my foot up in that same shoe, what do you do
to cope with the fact that not many of your dreams ever came true
you try to look beyond the surface
you hope and pray that god kept you from the frontline and the limelight for a greater purpose
morbid scars man and blinded from far
am i the only one who sees how sick minded we are?
they say forgive and forget is the way we should live
but i’ve been burned so many times that i forgot how to forgive
what you think is cool ain’t cool homie, start living wise
come out of your trance, pull up your pants, look civilized
we identify with dirt, we can’t even spell hope
our condition is why these youngsters prost-tute and sell dope
but through it all, i’m still down with ’em i’ll never impeach ’em
and everytime i get a chance to chop it up with ’em, i teach ’em

[hook] x2

[verse 2]

this past year i’ve learned that most people’s love for you only stems (from what?)
from you being a shoulder, and what you can do for them
but when the doing’s done and there’s no more to give the friendship’s through
trying your best not to deny them, you end up denying you
so what must i do to rid myself of those who are untrue
one’s who seek only for self and when exposed start acting new
while i was helping you, my own problems multiplied and grew
who can the counselor speak to when he needs to be counseled to?
so i speak to god and vent-out my frustrations and my rages
and he answers me directly through the scriptures in his pages
and i argue with myself while guilt and pain funnel through me
and i’m trying to break the trend of hurting people closest to me
i ain’t trying to please the world yeah i wouldn’t mind being rich
but i ain’t laughin’ when it ain’t funny or scratchin’ when it don’t itch
wise words from a wise man and i never forgot
i’d rather be hated for who i am than be loved for who i’m not

[hook] x2

[verse 3]

lord can i talk to you for a minute i’m kinda trippin’
i know i’ve been outta line lately, fallin’ off and slippin’
but um, i wanna thank you god for helpin’ me through it all
i know i’ll slip again but i pray that you’ll never let me fall
please forgive me for acts i’ve carried out places i’ve been
or having the nerve to ask for a blessing five minutes after i sin
please guide me to obedience, cause i know that you demand that
i’m blessed, i know my life could be worse and i understand that
but it’s like i’m still strugglin’ and i’m gettin’ bitter and hateful
and when people sufferin’, me asking for things seems ungrateful
i just wanna feed my family, barely getting by is unnerving
and only you know the real me and we both know i’m undeservin’
when you start itching with flames help me get out of that range
remove the urge for me to go left and push my heart to change
and when i’m face to face with temptation help me to be strong
and please don’t let me stop doin’ right cause others are did me wrong
