The Internet, Big Rube - It Gets Better (With Time) lyrics

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 darkest shades and
Smile for the camera i want you to know

(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
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 crying, 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 you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time

Your inner strength is the reason
You haven't said a word
But your countenance reveals 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
Trials we face bring pain and sorrow
But resistance sires 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 in spite 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 entombed
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 you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
That it gets better with time
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)
(I just hope you know that, that it gets)

Tommorrow's not in your hands
That's why I pray to the man
And I think it's arrogant to
Make plans in advance one day at a time
I burn the sage for all the negative
Pay it no mind
I'm at ease with the struggles
They're better with time need not I 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 gnashing my teeth
Hit the gas so hard I
Blew a gasket and leaked
Drain me for what I got like a nasty leech
You'll find hard learned lessons
Just asking our teach'
Life is just 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 nothing
Not even no reparations heavily meditating
But it gets better with time
And 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
