Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Now there's been a change with the weather
Today's forecast shows
That those thunderstorms are
Finally moving out and the rest of the week
Is going to be beautiful
I know you've been thinking
All you need is to pray Him for a better day
It gets hard to believe but
Don't let your faith slip away
Remember it's always darkest
Just before the Sun comes up
But I know sometimes it gets worse
Yeah, and I know before it gets better
But you hold on you can't give up
'Cause it will get better
The times that we fall
Even the pain won't let up
The pain won't let up you hold on, yeah
'Cause it will get better
You've been doing nothing
Time for the stress to end
Life try to break you
I know you're tired but don't stop fighting
Your life isn't over
Today is a brand new day
Just weather the storm
Because eventually every storm runs
Out of rain
But I know sometimes it gets worse
Yeah, and I know before it gets better
You survive the past you hold on
And I tell ya future, I'm on the way
'Cause it will get better
(Wait for it, yeah) the times that we fall
(We fall down) the pain won't let up
But things are turning around
You hold on, yeah 'Cause it will get better
Cast your cares no matter what it is
Just fight you've come too far to die
If you gonna pray about it
Don't worry about it
'Cause it will get better
Cast your cares no matter what it is
Just fight you've come too far to die
Your words have the power
To create the future so make this an anthem
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
That it will get better
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know
I'm just here to remind you
That it will get better
But I know sometimes it gets worse
Yeah, and I know before it gets better
You gotta fight through the bad you hold on
So you can enjoy the better days
'Cause it will get better
The times that you fall (That you fall down)
The pain won't let up
But you gotta be strong you hold on, yeah
Even when you don't feel strong
'Cause it will get better
(I've been saying it for your family)
I know, I know, I know, I know
For your children
I know, I know, I know, I know
Your mightiest family
I know, I know, I know, I know
You ain't laughing right now, but know
That it will get better
And I know i know, I know, I know, I know
