“Tomorrow’s a Better Day” Lyrics: Tommy Lee Sparta
[Intro]
Ahhh
Ohhh, ohhh
Ahhh, ahhh
Mhmmm …
[Verse 1]
Sittin’ on di corner
Watchin’ the sun goes down
Am missin’ the place I’m from
Roll up a spliff
Open a bottle ah rum
An tip a shot, fi ah friend weh gone
[Bridge]
I know, I’m like ah shinin’ star, I glow
I’m gonna light up this whole world
Don’t worry, mommy I’ma mek you proud
[Chorus]
Mama don’t cry
Keep yuh head high
Dry those tears out of your eyes
Tomorrow’s a better day
Am on my way
Yeah
Am on my way
Mhmmm
Yeah Yeah
[Verse 2]
I remember growing up
Mi used to sneak out on di block
My mama come around, know seh mi ah get whoop
She used to mek mi read dem holy book
An hope seh, mi nuh grow up fi be nuh crook
But di street got mi hook
Mi run wid a dangerous pack
Kick back pon di block, smoke weed an drink yah
Just relax, (yeah) bun up di two pack
Bare badman chune man ah knock
[Bridge]
Dem did a seh Tommy nah guh live long
Dem did a seh Tommy a guh dead young
Den mi member when di cops dem come down
Mi mother start bawl when she see mi pon di ground
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
They can break my bone
Never break my soul
‘Cause man always hold dem own
I’m a Soldier
Yow Jehovah
Always keep my head up, late night
Mama don’t wait up,
Street fight
Anuh every man survive, that mi realize
Suh father God mi ah beg yuh, protect mi life
Father God protect yuh son (mhmm)
Dem cyan gun me down (mhmm)
Di police show me love (mhmm)
Tek mi dreams to the sky, and watch dem pon di ground
[Chorus]
