Just because I was hating,
Secretly seething and baiting.
No-one knows what the big deal is,
When I'm alone sick n naked.
So I got to find a way,
A better way, a healthy way.
Got to find a way a better way,
Some other day, another day.
When I was a lover,
There were always others.
Girls and barmaids everywhere,
For a life without self care.
I got to find a way,
A better way, a clever way.
I got to find a way.
A nicer way, a different day.
When I was a fighter,
I'd burn candle wax with lighters.
Dripping wax on fingers,
Licking blood off fingers.
I got to find a way,
A better way, a better way.
I got to find a way.
A nicer way, some other day.
When I was a loser,
I was a locked up bruiser.
Fighting cops in high streets,
Waking up in beds with new meets.
I got to find a way,
A better way, a better way.
I got to find a way.
A finer way, but on another day.
When I was forced on the sick,
Life was boring as shit.
Hated way people got funny,
When I asked for money.
We got to find a way,
A better way, for a better day.
We need to find a way.
All of us need, a better day.
Freedom is like a flower,
Blooming to speak truth to power.
Never let them cage you for speaking,
This life aint meant for weaklings.
We got to find a day,
When we say, what we want to say.
Got to find a way to fight to say,
No Twitter cancel sway.
We got to find a way,
A freedom day, no backing away,
We got to find a way, don't let them say,
What we are not allowed to say.
So we got to find a way,
A better way, a better way,
Got to find a way, a clever way,
No fighting today.
Got to find a way, a better way, now today.
Got to find a way, a better way, now today.
Got to find a way, a better way, now today.
Got to find a way, a better way, now today.
(repeats until almost a scream)
