Better Man

verse one

I, I don't wanna get high
I don't wanna lie
I don't wanna die all by my-
self, I need help
something I felt inside
all my life
I'm scared their right
what if I'm wrong?
I might be
Have I
been pushing my friends away all along?
I've tried
God knows I've tried
but I'm at the point
I'm too tired to fight
it was I
when momma cried
right by her side
thinking of suicide
I'm tired
drama aside
I'm locked in a constant fight too much
tell me why
can't my life
at least
just be easy for once
nah
easy lives get the easy prize
I live hard so I'm dissed hard
if I'm hard on you
please just disregard
it's my job
I mean no harm
the stress I'm under gets me under
and tests me
no room for blunder
let's see
I hope my momma gets me
let's be honest
good at making dollars umm
God made me my father's son
I'm good at everything master at none
wait
actually son
I break my back for rap
so after I'm done
go back
back to the tracks of chapter one
I put my all in this life
I need you to feel me
love me as I was, as I am, and what I will be
rough around the edges, I'm guilty
my mouth is filthy
I'm a young punk who took a wrong turn
gotta learn some responsibility
but focus on what's ill of me
nobodies perfect
I'm a work it
it's all within my ability
be my friend if you think I'm worth it
just below the surface
I've been working harder then ever
on myself
pick up my pants
tighten my belt
she making me wanna be a better man

chorus

a better man, better man
better man, better man
a better man, a better man..


verse two

and I'm not to far off
play life like chess
till I rest
I'm the best
well one of the best
but I'm down the wrong path a hundred steps
gotta back track
gotta find my way back
and I can't just say that
God will just take that
no way out
Puff, I took a page out
your book, look
I'm so hard on myself
let's not forget why my standards are so high
I can do anything with my life
I've been blessed with a gift
shit
you just can't deny
I can't just be fly
dress nice
have a nice house
be good sometimes
gotta be the best father
be the best husband
gotta do work
gotta touch lives
I put my all in this here
you need to feel me
the man I was, man I am
and the man one day I will be
75, we'll see
gray hair, but it's still me
big smile, I got sick style
I'm rich now, but it's more then dough
Beautiful wife, beautiful kids
beautiful friends, beautiful right?
Look out into this beautiful night like
God I've got a beautiful life
gotta do what's right
and I might be young
and it might not mean much now
but I understand
she making me wanna be a better man


chorus

fade out
