"LEMONADE" by Alex Boye (born: 1970)

I'm just so broke you won't believe
Can't get a dollar out of me!
And as far as I can see
I'm losing control like a bad disease.
No I just can't get relief
I've been shot down by the life police,
And everyday I try to rise
But I can't succeed,
Can anybody find a cure for me?

You can be bitter, bitter, bitter,
Or you can be better, better, better.

When life gives you lemons
It's gonna be okay
Don't worry little children
And don't complain
Remember you're golden
So find some sugar cane
When life gives you lemons
Make lemonade!

Now everyday is like a brand new year,
I throw my hands up in the air
Like I just don't care,
I'm moon walking down the streets
Feeling like oh yeah
Like the bottom of the glass now I see clear
So now I laugh just a little more
I stand much taller than I did before
I know I'm not where I need to be
But I thank God that I'm not where I used to be;

I used to be bitter, bitter bitter,
And now I feel better, better, better!

When life gives you lemons
It's gonna be okay
Don't worry little children
And don't complain
Remember you're golden
So find some sugar cane
When life gives you lemons
Make lemonade!

I was saved for a reason
That I can't explain
Got something new to believe in
I'm awakened again
So many miracles are
Happening each day
If I can just get out of
My own way!
