I'm a little wiser, baby I'm a little kinder, baby After all these years, it's time to let you know See, I learned some things, my baby Finally spread my wings to save me Yes, I lost myself, that's why I had to go Then the light came up, baby Right after I forgave me And I prayed so hard, I thought I'd lose my mind I'm a little stronger, baby Took a little longer, maybe Tell my younger self to enjoy the ride Do you know, do you know, do you know, I'm doing better? Do you know, do you know, do you know, I'm doing better? It'll be alright It'll be alright It'll be alright It'll be alright I'm a little softer, baby Figthing exhausted, baby After all these years, it's time to let it go It's kinda hard to say, my baby When you're in pain, my baby When your life is breaking down and is out of your control Then the light came up, baby Right after I forgave me And I prayed so hard, I thought I'd lose my mind I'm a little stronger, baby Took a little longer, maybe Tell my younger self to enjoy the ride Do you know, do you know, do you know, the things get better? Do you know, do you know, do you know? I had to grow the rose in the dark I had to grow the rose in the dark Everybody sees you falling apart I had to grow the rose in the dark Dark Hold out a little longer It'll be alright It'll be alright It'll be alright It'll be alright Just hold out a little longer It'll be alright It'll be alright It'll be alright
