Look at the economy or my
Oil and gas are at an all-time high
Some imported foods with e. coli
Many banks are merging over night
But I can see the sun shining
A better day is coming
Changes on the way I believe it
I just got to keep on running
It's going to get better, it's got to get better...
All these snow storms in my life
When will the hail stop
Cold winter times walking from my mailbox
Bills pilling up while my job sells drops
Feeling consumed but your compassions fails not
Yeah, I doubt sometimes, I hit my knees as crown
But then I rewind my mind for the prime
Because I forgot you're faithful
Kept my family stable
Kept the plate full
Like Hezekiah, Lord, I'm grateful
Look at the economy, oh no
A man has lost his house nowhere to go
Now he feels he's lost and all alone
Brothers and my sisters, please, hold on
But I can see the sun shining
A better day is coming
Changes on the way I believe it
I just got to keep on running
It's going to get better, it's got to get better...
Better better better better...
You've got a hold fast to what you know
Even when it looks bad let your praises show
I just believe a God that loves me, dear
Wouldn't let me go through without a miracle near
So I stand on my faith and I rebuke all doubt
And I believe, God's gonna bring me out
When I wake up in the morning, I lift my hands in praise
Even in life's stages, he'll bless me everyday
It's going to get better, it's got to get better...
