[Dappy:]
One day I had to punch up this one youth
For trying to make a fool of me
In my hood there`s only so many opportunities
Look, I carry a tool for my pride and my jewelry
Now I find myself stuck, serving the community
[Faze:]
See me I made a change
I didn`t expect no fame
We came from practically nothing
To thousands screaming our name
A-list, play list
Even my Mum`s famous
I would do anything for some source of stadium status
[Tulisa:]
See the thing about life is that it`s
It`s just too short
Leave the past behind, and only then you`ll find
There`s more to life than you first thought
[Chorus:]
Coz I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that it would ever get better
Coz I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that it would ever get better
See I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that I could face this weather
But life
It will only get better
Trust me, it will only get better
[Tulisa:]
Going back to when I was young
And I, treated life like it would never end
But then I grew up
Got a little clued up
Then N-Dubz blew up
Finally, on my way
[Dappy:]
Coz if you knew where I come from
You would understand why I sing this song
It`s all Changa
Yeah, I put my hand up
In fact it made me man up
And finally make a change
[Tulisa:]
See the thing about life is that it`s
It`s just too short
(Just too short)
Leave the past behind, and only then you`ll find
There`s more to life than you first thought
[Chorus:]
Coz I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that it would ever get better
Coz I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that it would ever get better
See I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that I could face this weather
But life
It will only get better
Trust me, it will only get better
Coz I
I didn`t ever wanna sing this song again
Didn`t ever wanna sing this song again
Didn`t ever wanna sing this
Ever wanna sing this song again
And I
And I don`t wanna walk this road again
And I don`t have to be alone again
I can hold my head high, I`m strong again
I`m strong again
[Dappy:]
Money made no change, in fact it was more pain
B`s gone, who`s to blame?
Look at all these youths today
Rollin round with 38s
Stickin brothas for the white gold chains, like
(BOOM!)
Look, I didn`t mean to hurt you mate
[Faze:]
Back in the day I used to roll with like thirty mates
Never had clean money
Always had dirty plates
Be it now
We`re grinding and washing for like thirty days
Now we make...
[Chorus:]
Coz I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that it would ever get better
Coz I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that it would ever get better
See I
I never ever ever ever
Thought that I could face this weather
But life
It will only get better
Trust me, it will only get better
Coz I
I didn`t ever wanna sing this song again
Didn`t ever wanna sing this song again
Didn`t ever wanna sing this
Ever wanna sing this song again
And I
And I don`t wanna walk this road again
And I don`t have to be alone again
I can hold my head high, I`m strong again
I`m strong again.
