4-Bar Intro) Alarm clock’s screaming, coffee ain’t strong, Bills stack up but life rolls on. Could sit and complain, but what’s that do? The world don’t stop just ‘cause you want it to. (8-Bar Chorus) I’m better than some, worse than others, Still waking up, still pulling covers. Could be drowning, could be flying, Could be broke, could be buying. Can’t complain, no one listens anyway, Might as well smile and take on the day. Better than some, worse than others, That’s just life, and man, it’s okay. (12-Bar Verse 1) Traffic’s slow, the boss is loud, Gas prices high, but I get around. Groceries cost like a damn vacation, Still put food on the table, no hesitation. Some folks got it easy, some got it worse, Some ride first class, some ride in a hearse. Me? I just take it all in stride, Ain’t first place, but I’m still in the ride. (Repeat Chorus – 8 Bars) I’m better than some, worse than others, Still waking up, still pulling covers. Could be drowning, could be flying, Could be broke, could be buying. Can’t complain, no one listens anyway, Might as well smile and take on the day. Better than some, worse than others, That’s just life, and man, it’s okay. (12-Bar Verse 2) Some folks wake up already mad, Slam the door, talk like life’s so bad. But if you walk out thinking it’s gonna be rough, Then life’s gonna call your bluff. Me? I just roll with the punches, Find some good in the small-time crunches. It ain’t perfect, but I ain’t blind, Every day’s a gift if you shift your mind. (Repeat Chorus – 8 Bars) I’m better than some, worse than others, Still waking up, still pulling covers. Could be drowning, could be flying, Could be broke, could be buying. Can’t complain, no one listens anyway, Might as well smile and take on the day. Better than some, worse than others, That’s just life, and man, it’s okay. (4-Bar Outro) So when you ask me how I’m doing today, I’ll say what I always say… Better than some, worse than others, That’s just life, and man, it’s okay.
