702 - Better Day (Ghetto Girl) lyrics
[702 - Better Day Ghetto Girl lyrics]
Here’s the story 'bout a ghetto girl
Livin’ in a ghetto world
Against the world alone
Problems in her ordinary life
Make you wanna run and hide
She can never get it right
Like the seasons when they change
Nothing ever stays the same
Surrounded by pain and empty dreams
So I pray there’s gotta be a better day
(I’m praying for a better day) new day
Gotta be a better way
(I’m tryna find a better way)
See, many times she didn’t have a dime
When the bills would multiply
Contemplated suicide
And mama never had that special touch
Her daddy touched her way too much
Finally she had enough, oh oh
Like the seasons when they change
Nothing ever stays the same
Surrounded by pain and empty dreams
And she’s so alone living in the ghetto
(I’m praying for a better day) ooh
(I’m tryna find a better place)
Baby, don’t you cry
Hush little baby please don’t you cry
Baby, there’s no need to cry
Just reach for the sky don’t worry, baby
(Don't worry, baby) you’ll be alright
(You'll be alright) so learn to smile
Kiss your tears goodbye
(Kiss your tears goodbye)
(I’m praying for a better day)
She was a little ghetto child
And then she turned her life around
Another day (I’m tryna find a better way)
And I gotta find another way
Baby, don't you cry baby, don't you cry
Dry your eyes you 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
You can spread your wings and
Learn to fly high, high
Her mother didn’t have that touch, no
And daddy touched her way too much
Baby, dry your eyes yes he did, y'all
You can spread your wings and
Learn to fly high, so high
She's gotta get out somehow
Said she gotta get outta the ghetto, oh yeah
Livin’ in a ghetto world
Against the world alone
Problems in her ordinary life
Make you wanna run and hide
She can never get it right
Like the seasons when they change
Nothing ever stays the same
Surrounded by pain and empty dreams
So I pray there’s gotta be a better day
(I’m praying for a better day) new day
Gotta be a better way
(I’m tryna find a better way)
See, many times she didn’t have a dime
When the bills would multiply
Contemplated suicide
And mama never had that special touch
Her daddy touched her way too much
Finally she had enough, oh oh
Like the seasons when they change
Nothing ever stays the same
Surrounded by pain and empty dreams
And she’s so alone living in the ghetto
(I’m praying for a better day) ooh
(I’m tryna find a better place)
Baby, don’t you cry
Hush little baby please don’t you cry
Baby, there’s no need to cry
Just reach for the sky don’t worry, baby
(Don't worry, baby) you’ll be alright
(You'll be alright) so learn to smile
Kiss your tears goodbye
(Kiss your tears goodbye)
(I’m praying for a better day)
She was a little ghetto child
And then she turned her life around
Another day (I’m tryna find a better way)
And I gotta find another way
Baby, don't you cry baby, don't you cry
Dry your eyes you 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
You can spread your wings and
Learn to fly high, high
Her mother didn’t have that touch, no
And daddy touched her way too much
Baby, dry your eyes yes he did, y'all
You can spread your wings and
Learn to fly high, so high
She's gotta get out somehow
Said she gotta get outta the ghetto, oh yeah
