702 - Better Day Lyrics
Here’s the story bout a ghetto girlLivin’ in a ghetto worldAgainst the world aloneProblems in her ordinary lifeMake you wanna run and hideShe can never get it rightLike the seasons when they changeNothing ever stays the sameSurrounded by pain and empty dreamsSo I pray (I’m praying for a better day)There’s gotta be a better dayNew dayGotta be a better wayI’m tryna find a better waySee many times she didn’t have a dimeWhen the bills would multiplyContemplated suicideAnd momma never had that special touchHer daddy touched her way too muchFinally she had enoughLike the seasons when they changeNothing ever stays the sameSurrounded by pain and empty dreamsAnd she’s so aloneLiving in the ghettoI’m praying for a better day - oooooohhhhhI’m tryna find a better placeBaby don’t you cryHush little babyPlease don’t you cryBaby there’s no need to cryJust reach for the skyDon’t worry babyYou’ll be alrightSo learn to smileKiss your tears goodbyeShe was a little ghetto child (I’m praying for a better day)And then she turned her life aroundAnother day (I’m tryna find a better way)And I gotta find another wayBaby don’t you cryDry your eyesYou can spread your wings and learn to fly - high, high…..(For a better day)Baby dry your eyes (Oh a better day)You can spread your wing and learn to fly - high, so high…..Baby don’t you cry (I’m praying for a better day)You can spread your wings and learn to fly - high, high…..(Her mother didn’t have that touch, no, and daddy touch her way too much)Baby dry your eyesYou can spread your wings and learn to fly - high, so high……Said she gotta get outta the ghetto, oh yes…
