Yocontalie Jackson – Things Will Get Better lyrics
“Things Will Get Better”
Words and Music by Yocontale A. Jackson and Christopher Michael Stevens
Verse I: When I think about the things my mother taught me She taught me how to pray and stay out of fights
I often wonder, why the world is so daunting, no one cares about, how each other’s making out
What we need is to spread more love, Cause we’re all the same, we came from up above, yes
Time is short and it’s the only thing we have, so don’t wait to forgive, each other while you live
Chorus: Things Will get Better, I know they will get better And things will get better, when we pray (adlib) heyyyyy
Verse II: Never let a day go by, when you open your eyes, it doesn’t matter where you comin from
But what matters most, is where you going too, yes The country or the track both sides are more than that
We all have things that we must put aside, we’re more alike than not, so you don’t have to fight
Say what you mean and look to the sky and fall on your knees and pray Chorus: Things Will get Better,
Adlib: If you just believe
Chorus: I know they will get better
Adlib: They sure nough will Chorus: Things will get better Adlib: Heyy, ohhh, yehhh, Chorus: When we pray
Adlib: ummm
