Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One, two, three
[Verse 2]
Sittin' here in my problem
What am I gonna do now?
Am I gonna make it
Some way, somehow?
[Verse 3]
Well, maybe I'm not supposed to know
Maybe I'm supposed to cry
If nobody ever knows the way I feel
That's alright, that's okay
[Verse 4]
'Cause I'm gon' make (My world), my world a better place
Gon' keep that smile on my face
Yeah, I'ma teach myself, myself how to understand
Gonna make myself a better man
[Verse 5]
Climbin' out the window
Climbin' up the wall
Is anybody gonna save me?
Or are they gonna let me fall?
[Verse 6]
Well, I don't really wanna know (Ooh)
I'm gonna hold on the best I can (Ooh)
And if I fall down I'm gonna get back up (Ooh)
And it'll be alright, it'll be okay
[Verse 7]
'Cause I'm gon' make my world a better place
Gon' keep that smile all on my face
Lord, I'm gon' teach myself how to understand
Gon' make myself a better man
[Verse 8]
Well, I don't really wanna know (Ooh)
I'm gonna hold on the best I can (Ooh)
And if I fall down I'm gonna get back up (Ooh)
It'll be alright, it'll be okay
[Verse 9]
Well, I'm gon' (Make my world), my world a better place
Gon' keep that smile on my face
Gon' teach myself how to understand
Gon' make myself a better man
[Verse 10]
Yeah, I'm gon' (Make my world), my world a better place
Well, I'm gon (Keep that smile), keep a smile on my face
Yeah, I'ma teach (Myself), myself how to understand
Gon' make myself a better man
[Verse 11]
Make my world
I'm gon' make my world
You know I'm gonna (Make my world)
Yeah, it's gonna be alright
Gonna make my, make my (Make my world)
[Verse 12]
Well, maybe I'm not supposed to know (Ooh)
Maybe I'm supposed to cry (Ooh)
And if nobody ever knows the way I feel
That's alright, that's okay
[Verse 13]
'Cause I'm gon' make (My world), my world a better place
Yes, I'm gon' keep that smile all up on my face
Gon' teach (Myself), myself how to understand
Gon' make myself a better man
[Verse 14]
Yeah, I'm gon' (Make my world), my world a better place
Gon' keep that smile all on my face
Gon' teach myself how to understand
Gon' make myself a better, oh, a better man
Whoa, yeah, a better man (Ooh)
