It's Gonna Get Better [Long Version] lyrics

Reach out, hands in the air

Don't care just what they're saying

Hold out, just keep on hoping against hope

That it's gonna get better

Don't worry, there's no hurry for you, for me

Everything's gonna come around

Shout out, someone will listen to you, to me

Someone's gonna see

Well, he calls me over and he calls me brother and I know

Always fighting and moonlighting and

Well, it never ends in the city if you're all alone

There's a sister and she's standing next to her man

In the doorways and in the hallways and she don’t really care

It’s the city, and she’s all alone

So reach out, hands in the air

Don't care just what they're saying

Hold out, just keep on hoping against hope

That it's gonna get better

Don't worry, there's no hurry for you, for me

Everything's gonna come around

Shout out, someone will listen to you, to me

Someone's gonna see

Well, everywhere you… you live in the shadow of fear

In the darkness you feel the sharpness of steel

And it’s always there, in the city, and you’re all alone

So reach out, hands in the air

Don't care just what they're saying

Hold out, just keep on hoping against hope

That it's gonna get better

Don't worry, there's no hurry for you, for me

Everything's gonna come around

Shout out, someone will listen to you, to me

Someone's gonna see

If it's gonna get better, it starts with a feeling

If it's gonna get better, it's gonna take time

If it's gonna get better, we gotta start now

'Cause I know, everybody can feel it

And I know, everybody will see it

'Cause it shows, and that shows I'm not dreaming

'Cause you know, and I know it's time for a change
