Lifetime Lyrics by Jay Wile

Better Times

2020

[Verse 1:]
Oh the rain hits like poison, still so sweet to my mouth
I can’t forget that time, when it wouldn’t even come down
All of the mystery plans, no sight of the end, just wandering to and fro’
I’m just in my place, with all this time to think, watching clouds form over me

[Hook:]
When its pourin’ out, I think about it then and now
Sunny with a chance of cloud, better times, coming down
You wait your turn (Things get better)
Sun comin’ up, yuh (Just hold on now)

[Verse 2:]
Oh it shakes like thunder, all them nights I wonder
Where and when I’ll take my time
Either now or never, all be fine by summer
Still might have to plant a way
I’m gonna miss this time, a ghost thru the day, I feel like the man on the moon
Gotta wipe my face, I turned the sky gray, don’t you rain on the parade

[Hook:]
When its pourin’ out, I think about it then and now
Sunny with a chance of cloud, better times, coming down
You wait your turn (Things get better)
Sun comin’ up, yuh (Just hold on now)

[Outro:]
Go ‘til nothing’s left, don’t wait for that thing
Find the place you worship oh yeah
Even in this mood, do what you gotta do
Only got one lifeline, in this lifetime
“Open up ya stride”, my dad told me many times
I’ve run this all for once yeah
All we really want, is for you to put down the front
And tell us what you want, yeah
