Not Always Easy

Well she called me up on the telephone,
Upset, cuz she was feelin' like she was alone,
I told her don't worry, it's only today,
You can't push this stuff much, it'll find its own way,
Also I told her…
That there are some days when you just wanna sit at a mirror and say to it "I
hate you,"
But there's no reason for loneliness cuz there's always someone that you can
relate to,
It's not always easy,
It's hard to believe me
When I say that it will go away,
Shit ain't gonna last,
It'll fade to the past,
Look to the future, a new day.
Well he left a message,
Cuz I couldn't get to the phone in time,
He said that he'd done something wrong,
He couldn't move on,
He couldn't put it out of his mind.
Well here's what I told him….
That there are some days when you just wanna sit at a mirror and say to it, "I
hate you,"
But there's no reason for loneliness cuz there's always someone that you can
relate to,
It's not always easy,
It's hard to believe me
When I say that it will go away,
Shit ain't gonna last,
It'll fade to the past,
Look to the future, a new day.
Well one day I asked myself,
If I could take my own advice,
I thought well, now since I was down,
Maybe I'd come around,
If I wrote somethin' out that sounded nice.
Well I did, and here's what I came to….
That there are some days when I just wanna sit at a mirror and say to it, "I hate
me,"
But there's no reason to get down on myself because then I can't be all I can be,
It's not always easy,
It's hard to believe,
That it will go away,
I think of how fast,
That past really passed,
And look to the future, a new day.
Shit ain't gonna last,
It'll fade to the past,
Look to the future, a new day.
