paroles de chanson Intro to Better Days Ahead (Live 1983) - Gil Scott-Heron

I spilled a drink over here during the first set
I had no idea it would lead to suicide during the second
Damn near killed myself
They would have printed in the paper, "wounds was self-inflicted"
"Musician Goes Down into a Hail of Cognac" (Must've been a hell of a Cognac)
That's hell of a Cognac, right, I hear you
Look, if it had been an easy day, would I be here looking like this?
You know a lot of times when you sing songs about ideas
And those ideas are ideas other than what other people are singing about
People ask me questions about whether you're optimistic
And what you're looking forward to
What we feel is though
Midnight is the first minute of the new day
And even though it is darkest at midnight
In fact, it is the first minute of a new a.m.
And once you get to midnight
You just know that the sunshine is coming
So we'd like to take you into an idea about tomorrow
The song is called "Better Days Ahead"
