In my life, I've made mistakes
Had my priorities out of place
A couple times, I been outta line
More than a few, I wasn't using my mind
Not wisely using my time
It kinda feels like I was wasting away my life
But I wanna be better
While it ain't too late
Gonna leave no room for hate
Gonna be a better son, a better brother
Gonna be a better friend, a better lover
No more stupid mistakes
Positive life, whatever it takes
Gonna try and do better
Just gonna do better
In my life, I did a few things wrong
I probably should've stayed away from the drugs and the bong
I probably never shoulda ever been with that girl
I probably should've seen things past my own world
Living for the party
Spending way too many nights getting rowdy
But I wanna be better
While it ain't too late
Gonna leave no room for hate
Gonna be a better son, a better brother
Gonna be a better friend, a better lover
No more stupid mistakes
Positive life, whatever it takes
Gonna try and do better
Just gonna do better
You gotta let the past burn
And you gotta take in the lessons you learn
You gotta know what for you is right
You gotta get back up, no matter the height
Gonna always put my family first
The next girl, she's gonna be real nice
Gonna learn when the answer's no
And I'm gonna get my money right
While it ain't too late
Gonna leave no room for hate
Gonna be a better son, a better brother
Gonna be a better friend, a better lover
No more stupid mistakes
Positive life, whatever it takes
Gonna try and do better
Just gonna do better
