I've been trying a long, long time
Still I can't make it
Everything I try to do seems to go wrong
It seems I have done something wrong
But they're trying to keep me down
Who God bless, no one curse,
thank God I'm past the worst
Better must come one day
Better must come, they can't conquer me
Better must come yeah
I've been trying a long, long time
But I can't make it
Noone to give me a helping hand
The only sign keeps me down
Who God...
Oh my people get a seat
They're trying to take advantage of me
Better must come, better must come
Better must come one day
Better must come
