good and bad things come in life
  and I wish the good things would stay
  but usually it don't go my way
  and the good things fly away
  I have a knack for doing wrong
  but I try and I try
  maybe my future don't look so bright
  but I'm not asking why
    you gotta live your life from day to day
  that's the only way
  don't fear the things that you don't know
  just listen and learn
  and let the hard feelings go
    I try to make new friends from day to day
  and if they respect me man fuck they're ok
  it's the yuppity white people that fear me
  that I can't stand to see
  cause if you're a good person at heart
  your color means nothing to me
  I talk to so many black people from day to day
  and it seems like every time I see a white person
  they just turn away
    you gotta live your life from day to day
  that's the only way
  don't fear the things that you don't know
  just listen and learn and let the hard feelings go
    you gotta live your life from day to day
  ya ya that's the only way
  don't fear the things that you don't know
  just listen and learn and let the hard feelings go
