Emilio Rojas Brighter Days
[Intro]
We pray to dear God this day for the blessings you provide
But from ashes to ashes, from dust to dust
The spirit of all our joys
The cause of our delights
The glory of our darkest nights
And the comfort of times like these
[Chorus]
I don't doubt, it's gonna get better
Gon' be brighter days, gon' see brighter days
I don't doubt, it's gonna get better
Gon' be brighter days, gon' see brighter days
[Verse 1]
Yeah
I wanna say, thanks to the doctors, thanks to the nurses
Thanks to the normal people diggin' in their purses
Everything counts, thanks for helpin' when we hurtin'
Knowin' you ain't getting reimbursement
Thanks to the janitors, thanks to the mains
That's on the front line, cleanin', keepin' us safe
And thanks to the ones that make deliveries all day
Even though they know they barely get paid
Wanna give a special thanks to the clerks
Thanks to the grocers, thanks to the Church online, spreadin' hope
And thanks to the ones keepin' food banks open
Reaching to the needy and the homeless
Say thanks to the cooks, thanks for the food
Thanks for the workers in the fields pickin' fruit
Thanks to the buses bringin' lunches from school
People doin' what they don't gotta do
I wanna tell 'em all
[Chorus]
I don't doubt, it's gonna get better
Gon' be brighter days, gon' see brighter days
I don't doubt, it's gonna get better
Gon' be brighter days, gon' see brighter days
[Verse 2]
Yeah
It's all about perspective, yeah
To everybody on the line, know you all got my respect
And no question, you all have been brave
I think the world needs heroes and you all deserve capes
While the government been focuses on the stocks in the banks
Ya'll been keepin' shelves stocked and gas in our tanks
Huh, thanks for supportin' us
Yeah, I hope you realise you deserve more from us
'Cause you wake up everyday and make the world turn
Yeah, you should get some praise, yeah, it's your turn
And not short term, it should be permenant
Yeah, 'cause everybody need you, now they learnin' it
'Cause you been earnin' it, we don't deserve you
You were my prayers when my knees hit the Church Pew
'Cause ya'll been grindin' for us even when it hurt you
I got your back even if the world deserts you
I'm sayin' thanks
[Chorus]
I don't doubt, it's gonna get better
Gon' be brighter days, gon' see brighter days
I don't doubt, it's gonna get better
Gon' be brighter days, gon' see brighter days
[Outro]
Brighter days are comin'
I said, brighter days, brighter days
I said, brighter days are comin'
I said, brighter days are on their way
Brighter days are comin'
I said, brighter days, brighter days
I said, brighter days are comin'
I said, brighter days are on their way
Brighter days are comin'
I said, brighter days, brighter days
I said, brighter days are comin'
I said, brighter days are on their way
Brighter days are comin'
I said, brighter days, brighter days
I said, brighter days are comin'
I said, brighter days are on their way
