Better Than Yesterday

lyrics:
they always say
did you turn out better than yesterday?
if not you gotta find a way.
come on kid, you'll turn out okay.

are you moving forward? quit being stuck, get it all in order.
you get to overthinking, stop letting it kill you
you're just a lost soul who aint got nothing to do

in relative reality its not so bad
doesn't mean i can't still worry about my dad
he's got a small place but its a broken home,
works three jobs and he's all alone

never really hit me that he was that poor
i could tell cause he dont buy the same cigs anymore
woulda never believed he saved me up 40k
but then my family split, threw it all away

wonder how itd be if i went with him
when would i ever see marissa, or chill with jordan?
would i have had any boyfriends or smoked all that weed?
would my past mistakes turn into good deeds?

he is my father and i'll always be his daughter
i am the only reason why he still bothers
six years ago i just want to leave it behind
every time i see his face it'll always remind, me to say

did i turn out better than yesterday?
come on kid, i'll turn out okay.
i'll find a way to say
i turned out better than yesterday

when anything happens its for a reason
that's been my new god since i stopped believin
sometimes the reasons aren't fully explained
and for a while i thought it was all in vain
i scorned the happy kids and i scored my skin
only two knew about my unknown sin
the rest still don't know and they never will
i won't tell because i don't have the guts to kill

i am on my own but it sounds so sad
to think we end up alone, kid you don't know
you might be grown up but kid you just don't know
ay kaibigan mo, oo, mahal kita
hindi mo lamang makita

we all want things that are out of our reach
do i prefer you as a friend with the things that you teach?
i made a decision but it only goes halfway
i need you to meet me and see it like i see it

we could be more than we were yesterday
am i running to a dead end or is there a way?
i care too much and circumstances aren't great
but you'd never know til you took the bait
(so kid, what do you say?)

i am in charge and i am in control
i get back up after i fall and
nothing can stop me i will keep going
even if i feel lost i am my own soldier

so many things and not enough time
lets just sit down and talk about our lives
i miss you guys, i'm sorry i've lied
but now we're past that after all the times that i tried

today i am better than yesterday
might come down again but thats just part of the game
but you know what kid? i'm moving forward
rixxyrikaa stepping up and no one can stop her

i'm no longer bored
i'm much happier than i was before
today is a better day, brand new milestone
and i don't have to be lonely if i have to be alone

its a fork in the road, its a coin flip
its up to me to avoid making a full round trip
everybody chill out, because i got this
my goals like a target, bullseye, i won't miss

that i'll promise to myself
and everybody else.
rixxyrikaa x out.
