I've been waiting for some good news
For the clouds to part and let the light shine through
I wanna wake up to a better tomorrow
'Cause I've had enough
Where is the trust?
Where is the truth?
It's about time for some good news
I'm just happy to be breathing
I ain't trying to see what's on the newscast this evening
Nah, I don't need no reason
Music in the air, got the Grammys on the cable
Dinner on the plate, whole family at the table
This that home cooked, hit your soul, take your shoes off
This that feel-good, yell it loud from the rooftop
This that snow day, all the kids taking school off
This that fresh air hittin' me on my afternoon walk
And I've been waiting for some good news, good news
I'm just trying to get my footloose, footloose
And we been dealing with the wrong things so long
The smallest things can make it right
That's why we hold on for some good news
I've been waiting for some good news
For the clouds to part and let the light shine through
I wanna wake up to a better tomorrow
'Cause I've had enough
Where is the trust?
Where is the truth?
It's about time for some good news
Oh oh, tell me something good
I've been waiting for some good news
Oh oh, I've been waiting for some good news
Tell me something good
Yeah, I'm feeling like we never talk about what's going right
My daughter's smiling 'cause her braces fixed her overbite
And she's excited 'cause her friends are staying overnight
It's just the simple things that we get out of life
Forget the drama, all around me, I don't wanna hear it
I swear the more you talk about what's going wrong
That's when you start to fear it and this ain't that
This is payday with a pay raise
This is that walking away with that W on game day
This that good luck, yeah we praying for it
This that fast food drive-thru and the guy in front's paying forward
Help somebody, all that other shit just ain't important
And watch what happens tomorrow when you be waiting for some good news
I've been waiting for some good news (yeah me too, me too)
For the clouds to part and let the light shine through
I wanna wake up to a better tomorrow
'Cause I've had enough
Where is the trust?
Where is the truth?
It's about time for some good news
