Lyrics

[Intro]

Yeah

Mm-hmm

Look

(Yeah, yeah)

[Verse 1]

Used to pray on the floor by the mattress

Bills spread out like cards on the table

Stomach talkin’, I was actin’ like it’s nothin’

Smilin’ in public, in private I was unstable

Scrollin’ my phone seein’ mans in a mansion

Same age as me, I was stuck in a traffic jam

Mama said, “Son, what’s for you gonna happen”

So I put the pain in a plan

[Chorus]

I’ve been wishin’ for better, better

But I’m livin’ this life right now

If it all came today or never

I’ma still thank God out loud (yeah)

Hands up high, we alive, we alive

I remember those nights I would cry

Now I dance with the hurt in my eyes

I’ve been wishin’ for better

But I’m lovin’ this ride

[Verse 2]

New day, sunlight on my eyelids

Same hood, but the view feel different

Laughin’ with the bros on the side street

Talkin’ ‘bout the times we was breakin’ in the kitchen

Lil’ sis text, say she proud that I made it

I ain’t made it yet, but I love how that sound

Used to only dream of a break from the struggle

Now I take a deep breath just to feel this ground (yeah)

Got scars on my heart like tattoos

But they glow when I tell my truth

I was chasin’ what I didn’t even value

Now peace hit harder than a brand-new coupe

[Chorus]

I’ve been wishin’ for better, better

But I’m livin’ this life right now

If it all came today or never

I’ma still thank God out loud (oh yeah)

Hands up high, we alive, we alive

I remember those nights I would cry

Now I dance with the hurt in my eyes

I’ve been wishin’ for better

But I’m lovin’ this ride

[Bridge]

Who knew that the pain would pay?

Who knew I would smile this way? (smile this way)

Even when the rain don’t fade

I’ma sing in the storm, I’ma sing in the storm

Who knew that the low felt high

When you standin’ on the truth inside

Either way, I’ma live my life

Either way, I’ma live my life (yeah)

[Chorus]

I’ve been wishin’ for better, better

But I’m livin’ this life right now

If it all came today or never

I’ma still thank God out loud

Hands up high, we alive, we alive (alive)

I remember those nights I would cry

Now I dance with the hurt in my eyes

I’ve been wishin’ for better

But I’m lovin’ this ride (this ride)
