Better Days
W.C Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yea the better days are coming
Just take it day by day
Take a step back and just keep the faith
You've come a long way
It'll be okay
Early in my life always knew I had some bigger dreams
I turned to music so expression is my everything I
Why is it that conflict splits us up unnecessarily? Man why?
But that was back in time
And now we're looking to the future
Staying focused all the time
I'm not perfect no one's perfect
Claim that then they're lying
I'm just tryna see the world
And I'd encourage you to try
To look in yourself
Look at all the things you've been through
And realize how much you thrived
Look at all you've been through
This your motivation
Turkwest Thabz C
Yea we making music
On the west side of LA
So let's sing
And take a step back
And when you feel down know that people got your back
Keep your head up
Cause next up
The best is yet to come
So let's get it, Let's get it
And keep spreading the love c'mon
Gotta keep going cause there's better days
Yea the better days are coming
Just take it day by day
Take a step back and just keep the faith
You've come a long way
It'll be okay
As the years go by know you just can't quit
Some days it feels like life's a test you've gotta pass real quick
And they'll be haters on the journey trying to mess with your mental
Just tryna to throw you off with nonsense
Wanna increase your stress load
Be cool
Cause that's on them
Because the most important person is the one that's within
Your heart your mind your soul
Keep it pure and defend
The energy you have inside
And be your own best friend
And when the better days arrive just sit back and just cherish it
The one that got you through it is inside of you relish it
But if today's a day you're feeling burdened with challenges
The load is feeling heavy and it's difficult managing
Take a step back and know that Thabz has got your back
And play this song again like it's your motivation track
Keep your head up cause next up
The best is yet to come so let's get it
Let's get it
And keep spreading the love c'mon
Gotta keep going cause there's better days
Yea the better days are coming
Just take it day by day
Take a step back and just keep the faith
You've come a long way
It'll be okay
The lyrics to W.C. Noise's song Better Days showcases the emotions of being trapped within one's own thoughts, and feeling the need to escape from them. The phrase "Get out of my head" implies an almost suffocating internal struggle, where the singer is fighting to regain control of their inner voice. The lines "I know you think it's just a place to play / Shh! you're waking the dead" allude to the idea of the singer being haunted by their own subconscious, which they desperately wish would quieten down. The song then shifts to a moment of tension, as the singer faces someone who they do not trust. The lines "All this time has gone by / And all I see is distrust in your eyes" are emblematic of this sentiment, and the singer's defensive tone indicates that they fear being judged by this person. They refuse to "stand trial", arguing that they are not emotionally equipped to defend themselves.
However, despite the singer's internal struggles, there is still an element of optimism to the song. The phrase "If I could make you see it my way / Then you would believe / That there'll come a better day / When all our dreams will come true" suggests a longing for connection, and a hope that there will be a time when they can find common ground with this person they are currently at odds with. The idea of "all our dreams" coming true presents a vision of happiness, and serves as a motivator to push through the internal and external turmoil.
Overall, the lyrics to Better Days are a raw and honest take on the pressures of struggling with one's own mind, while also navigating the complexities of relationships. They convey a sense of yearning, desperation, and ultimately, hope for the future.

Get out of my head
Stop occupying my thoughts
I know you think it's just a place to play
I am aware that you think you can easily manipulate me
Shh! you're waking the dead
Your words are hurtful and affecting me deeply
This is not time to say what you've gotta say
I am not ready to entertain any more of your ideas right now
All this time has gone by
A lot of time has passed between us
And all I see is distrust in your eyes
I can sense that you no longer trust me
Don't ask me to smile
I am not in the mood to pretend everything is okay
I told you I'm not fit to stand trial
I have already expressed that I am not mentally able to handle anymore stress
If I could make you see it my way
If only you understood my perspective
Then you would believe
You would then be convinced
That there'll come a better day
Better days will soon come our way
When all our dreams will come true
A time when our aspirations will be realized
I've read all that you've read
I have read and tried to understand your point of view
And all I can figure is you're brain dead
But I am left with the conclusion that your mindset is static and limited
Don't expect me to lie
I refuse to compromise my integrity
I won't stand here convicted of your crimes
I won't take the blame for any wrongdoings caused by you
