a better day

T.i.

Itââ?¬â?¢s Okay
Tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

When ya rent a day late and ya tryna stay straight
But the only way to get it is to slang that weight
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

We all Came in the world with a sparkle in our eye
Not knowing the only thing that we can promise is to die
A promise is a lot canââ?¬â?¢t nobody guarantee it
And death around the corner canââ?¬â?¢t nobody damn see it
I canââ?¬â?¢t agree that God good at all time
But we all know shit aint all good at all time
So I tote my strap in the hood and all time
But respect aint just something thatââ?¬â?¢s understood in our time
Especially by our kind man I hate it for the future
Police donââ?¬â?¢t wanna lock ya up no more they wanna shoot ya
And that's half as bad as these hatasââ?¬â?¢ll do ya
As soon as ya get ya loot up they wanna shoot up
Lord forbid to kill me I bet ya nobody knew what
Suckas get shot and police come straight to us
And that jus how they do us ever since niggas blew up
I know ya goin through it know Iââ?¬â?¢m goin thru it too bruh

When ya rent a day late and ya tryna stay straight
But the only way to get it is to slang that weight
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

When ya daughter like 6 and her pops aint shit
You aint wanna tell her you and momma gotta go strip
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

Iââ?¬â?¢m doin this for the hood and the kid wit no dad
I was just like yaââ?¬â?¢ll donââ?¬â?¢t feel so bad
Know itââ?¬â?¢s hard when ya live so bad
They whoop ya ass and they wonder why ya still so bad
For long, ya get whoopinââ?¬â?¢s and just laugh
Momma washinââ?¬â?¢ clothes and find a lilââ?¬â?¢ blue bag
She ask what ya what ya doin ya tell her stuntinââ?¬â?¢ like my daddy
You knew that I was gonna be a hustla when ya had me
Look around ma you sent me to the store to get some bread
And Iââ?¬â?¢m passinââ?¬â?¢ atleast 8 Jââ?¬â?¢s or moââ?¬â?¢
Rent been late for 8 days or moââ?¬â?¢
But slanginââ?¬â?¢ blow a better habit than 8 days of snow

Ya out speedin' wit the white and ya see the blue lights
And ya on ya 3rd strike so the judge say life
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

If ya son 14 and his dad a folk criminal
Hard to realize it Baby girl but god with ya
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

My momma girl son 14 just got killed
Had to catch myself
Bout to tell her I know how ya feel
Iââ?¬â?¢d a been a damn liar
See her tryin not to cry
She know he in a better place
But she just wanna know why
Know somebody touch mine
and a nigga gonââ?¬â?¢ die
Itââ?¬â?¢s goin down
How dare I tell her to calm down
I tried to convince her that he in Godââ?¬â?¢s arms now
She said i donââ?¬â?¢t believe that theres a God right now
I know its hard right now and ya heart light now
But God give new begginins u can start right now
Know ya scarred right now cuz you apart right now
But Shit you in better shape than we are right now

When ya rent a day late and ya tryna stay straight
But the only way to get it is to slang that weight
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

When ya daughter like 6 and her pops ainââ?¬â?¢t shit
You aint wanna tell her you and momma gotta go strip
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

And ya on ya 3rd strike so the judge say life
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day

Hard to realize it baby girl but god with ya
Okay, tomorrowââ?¬â?¢ll be a better day
