03. Brighter Days

Verse 1
I saw a brighter day right around the corner.
It took a look at me and then it ran to God.
I got my runnin’ on and ran around the corner.
I had no time to walk.
It was one of those days, ‘twas about to rain.
An adrenaline rush ran through my veins.
One of those days, I had to find
a remedy for my pain.

Chorus
I know there’s brighter days.
I know there’s better days.
Just a heartbeat and a mindset away.
I may stumble but I ain’t going down while I’m chasin’ brighter days.

Verse 2
I passed a naked honey on the way to my brighter day.
I looked the other way – she’s got no grip on me.
I passed a pile of money on the way to my brighter day.
I turned the other way – it’s got no grip on me.
Through a puddle of tears, I found a mountain of cheers.
Had the down-and-out ranked quite severe.
Then I kinda got a notion to step up my locomotion
‘cuz I knew my brighter day was near.

Chorus

Verse 3
Hopped in my car, drove 83.
Where my brighter day went, no mystery.
Hauled ass, had my foot on the gas
as I rolled  down the road with urgency.
Hot on the trail of my brighter day
when a man named devil got in my way.
I didn’t even stop as I drove over top
and considered him yesterday.

Chorus (x2)
