It Gets Better
Embracing Life's Journey: It Gets Better by Jason Kyle
Lyrics
I've been a hard head since the day that I was born
I've been stubborn and resistant to change since my birth.
With a heart on my sleeve that comes off as easy as the shirt that I've worn
My emotions are easily visible, much like the shirt I wear.
I've had some take advantage of this love that I got
People have taken advantage of the love I possess.
But all I can do is remind myself they are what I'm not
I acknowledge the difference and distance myself from those who take advantage.
It's the smile on my little boys face saying daddy I love you
The happiness in my son's expression as he says he loves me is a source of joy.
Those little moments that seem so small they're enough to get me through
Small moments, like those with my son, provide sufficient strength.
And I don't wanna take for granted all these things in my life
I value the important things in life, such as friends and family.
Like my good friends and Family that'll be there til I die
Appreciation for loyal friends and family who will support me throughout my life.
All I know is it gets better
Expressing a belief that life improves over time.
It Gets better
Reiteration of the idea that things get better.
They say that time heals all wounds and I guess that's kinda true
Time is a healer, and although it's true, some wounds take longer to heal.
I'm better now than yesterday still getting over you
Continued recovery from past emotional pain.
I packed my bags and I moved on to a better place
Moving on to a better place after a difficult experience.
I'll take these lessons that I've learned but I won't forget your face
Learning from past experiences without forgetting the pain.
It's the smile on my little boys face saying daddy I love you
Reiteration of the joy found in the smile of the narrator's son.
Those little moments that seem so small they're enough to get me through
Emphasizing the significance of small moments in overcoming challenges.
And I don't wanna take for granted all these things in my life
Expressing gratitude for the important aspects of life, like friends and family.
Like my good friends and Family that'll be there til I die
Recognition of the enduring support from friends and family until death.
All I know is it gets better
Reiteration of the belief that life improves over time.
It Gets better
Repeated assurance that things get better.
I take these lessons learned and I put them in a song
Turning personal lessons into a song as a therapeutic outlet.
Write down every word just to help me move on
Documenting every experience in lyrics to aid in the process of moving forward.
It's the smile on my little boys face saying daddy I love you
Reiteration of the joy found in the narrator's son's affectionate expression.
Those little moments that seem so small they're enough to get me through
Emphasizing the power of small moments to provide strength.
And I don't wanna take for granted all these things in my life
Gratitude for essential elements of life, including friends and family.
Like my good friends and Family that'll be there til I die
Acknowledging the enduring support from friends and family until death.
All I know
Reiteration of the belief that life improves over time.
All I know is it gets better
Reaffirmation that things get better.
It Gets better
Final reassurance that life continues to improve.
