“Better Days” was written in 2020 after covid-19 struck my hometown in Gallatin, Tennessee. We lost so many family and friends during that horrible disease.
And I was trying to share the light that there was always better days ahead of every tragedy.
During this time, we were actually being rationed at the grocery stores for the amount of food that we could purchase.
It got so bad here and around the whole world. I was beginning to think it was the end of time.

Spirit Of Black Rock
Better Days
The skies have darkened
The clouds have formed
Can’t find my way
The journey is long, the road is rough
What a horrible day.
Chorus
Sun will shine
people will thrive
Hope is so very near
Got to climb that mountain
Got to shed those streaming tears.
Got to stay on my path can’t quit
What a horrible day
Never thought this day would come
Can’t find my way
The shelves have emptied the food is gone
What a horrible day
People hungry the darkness is here
Can’t find my way
Chorus
Sun must shine
people will thrive
Hope is so very near
Got to climb that mountain
Had to shed those streaming tears, Yeah
Bridge
What’s shining through
Could possibly be
What have I been searching for
has finally found me, Oh
Outro
Finally prayers are answers
Hope is here to stay
Better days are on the way
What a beautiful day.
