One day I had to punch up this one youth for trying to make a fool of me In my hood there's only so many opportunities Look I carry a tool for my pride and my jewelry Now I find myself stuck serving the community See me I made a change, I didn't expect no fame We came from practically nothing to thousands screaming our name A-list, play list, even my mum's famous I would do anything for some source of stadium status
See the thing about life is that it's, it's just too short
Leave the past behind, and only then you'll find There's more to life than you first thought
'Cause I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that it would ever get better
'Cause I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that it would ever get better
See I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that I could face this weather
But life, it will only get better Trust me, it will only get better
Na, na, nai
Going back to when I was young And I, treated life like it would never end But then I grew up, got a little clued up Then N-Dubz blew up finally on my way 'Cause if you knew where I come from You would understand why I sing this song It's all changa, yeah, I put my hand up In fact it made me man up and finally make a change See the thing about life is that it's, it's just too short Leave the past behind, and only then you'll find There's more to life than you first thought 'Cause I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that it would ever get better
'Cause I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that it would ever get better
See I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that I could face this weather
But life, it will only get better Trust me, it will only get better
'Cause I, I didn't ever wanna sing this song again
Didn't ever wanna sing this song again Didn't ever wanna sing this Ever wanna sing this song again
And I, and I don't wanna walk this road again And I don't have to be alone again
I can hold my head high, I'm strong again
I'm strong again
Money made no change, in fact it was more pain B's gone, who's to blame? Look at all these youths today, rollin' round with 38s Stickin brothas for the white gold chains like Look I didn't mean to hurt you mate Back in the day I used to roll with like thirty mates Never had clean money, always had dirty plates Be it now, we're grindin an' washin for like 30 days Now we make these animal wage in like 30 days
'Cause I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that it would ever get better
'Cause I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that it would ever get better
See I, I never ever, ever, ever Thought that I could face this weather
But life, it will only get better Trust me, it will only get better
'Cause I, I didn't ever wanna sing this song again Didn't ever wanna sing this song again Didn't ever wanna sing this Ever wanna sing this song again And I, and I don't wanna walk this road again
And I don't have to be alone again I can hold my head high, I'm strong again I'm strong again
