Ardie - BETTER DAYS Lyrics

It's just ARDIE
Wasn't charismatic
Didn't care about nothing
I was a lost soul, yeah

I was so haunted
I wish that you'd seen it
The person that I was
Before I met Jesus

Now nothing can stop us
I was an orphan
My therapy, I could write and record this
And nobody did it like I did

My thoughts were endorphins
I get lost in the noises
They might end all the torment
And my only reason to spit these rhymes

Cause every single day when I wake up
The devil knocks on my doorstep
So I be on that better myself
Lately I've been sick of myself

Call a paramedic, I need help
These wounds won't heal, I can't heal it myself
Phone to the moon, send a savior to my house
Right now, if you don't get it, I'm a get it myself
You don't get it, I don't have another way
Get out my way, pen to the pad

That's the only thing I say
My whole life I wanted love
My whole life I wanted support
My whole life I wanted friends or someone that I could adore

My whole life I couldn't get what I want
My whole life just felt like war, kicking down doors
New territory, never been here before
I'm about to explore the crevice of my mind
So let's open the door

My mind is an open book
I'll take you all on a tour
Just don't get scared now
That baggage is not yours
So what am I praying for?
What am I praying for?
What am I praying for?
I'll tell ya

I just keep praying for better days
I just want more of the better days
I'm looking forward to better days
Better days, yeah, better days

I just keep praying for better days
I just want more of the better days
I'm looking forward to better days
Better days, yeah, better days

Don't talk to me about pain
You don't know nothing about my life so say something
Positive for once or don't say nothing
It's all that I ask

I pray everyday I can leave all this pain in the past
But I can't so I write it all down and I bandage the scratches
But I can't cover the bruises
I used to fight everyday in my life

And I pray I don't do something stupid
Even though I was lost
I prayed I get lost in the music
And maybe one day somebody like me

Would think they could use it
To battle their depths of despair and discover what truth is
Find Christ like "who's this?"
Be friends with the peacemakers

Cause that's where I achieve greatness
I got no visa
But I'm gonna be places
Ain't gotta manifest it

I got a God that rains blessings
Just ask me what happened to rage
I'll tell you that life is better and I'm happy with patience
What you know about patience

I know I was one way but now I'm another
He was the in between places
I put on a grin
Walked out on my sin

I'm starting to feel like I'll make it
God's teaching me greatness but I guess for now
I'll lift up my praises
Don't feel it? I'll fake it and

I just keep praying for better days
I just want more of the better days
I'm looking forward to better days
Better days, yeah, better days

I just keep praying for better days
I just want more of the better days
I'm looking forward to better days
Better days, yeah, better days

I just keep praying for better days
I just want more of the better days
I'm looking forward to better days
Better days, yeah, better days

I just keep praying for better days
I just want more of the better days
I'm looking forward to better days
Better days, yeah, better days

It's just ARDIE
