Joe - Better Days [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Intro]
Ooh child, things are going to get easier
Ooh child, things will get brighter

Better days, better days
Better days, better days
Keep your head up
Better days, better days
Better days, better days
Keep your head up

[Verse 1]
She grew up in Brooklyn
The Eastside and fulton street
Never knew her father, he got shot hustling
She started acting much older
Her mother couldn't control her
Losing direction, started sex'n, no protection

[Chorus]
And now she's expecting
A life she wasn't ready for
She's feeling rejected
And her future's unsure
And if you want
Run out there on your own
Don't give up sunshine
There will be better days
(Keep your head up)
Gotta keep movin' on
To raise a child alone
Don't give up sunshine
There will be better days
(Keep your head up)

[Verse 2]
Are you down with full time
On weekends stripping?
So you met baller, but ain't down but trick'n
Gonna have to put your kid through school
Guess you hit snotty love for you
And you know your wrong girl
You gotta believe

[Chorus]

[Outro]
It's gonna be alright
You gotta keep your head up
Think about it now
(Keep your head up)
To my young sisters, it's gonna be alright
You gotta keep your head up
Oh she's so young [?]

And if you want
Run out there on your own
Don't give up sunshine
There will be better days
(Keep your head up)
Gotta keep movin' on
To raise a child alone
Don't give up sunshine
There will be better days
(Keep your head up)

And if you want
Run out there on your own
Don't give up sunshine
There will be better days
(Keep your head up)
Gotta keep movin' on
To raise a child alone
Don't give up sunshine
There will be better days
(Keep your head up)
