Better Days

I forgive those in my past who didn't love me how I needed And I must forgive myself for when I left myself depleted Since a hand-me-down teen had devotion in my genes I wear emotions on my sleeve No these don't come out at the cleaners I've seen the meanest things I know it seems by my demeanor But you give me the chance My heart is pure as Aquafina No fear in my arena Bright lights don't turn me deer Now every time I staring a mirror I'd be staring at a leader My feet up While I think about the needy Like everytime I heal I make it real and given a reason For youngin's after me To live with ease when they get lesions Pain from falls tend to leave once they change you like the seasons I love to give But every time that they got greedy Rubbed me the wrong way Like you tryna diss a genie A boy had to meet the world I wasn't taught by Mr. Feeny So with recovery I'm more elitist than defeated It's needed I think about better days I Visualize them and they elevate Every-time I meditate They tell me that it's getting late But this life is not that kind of race I know I can make a change I'm in it for the long haul If you down to ride it's your call Cause I know I can find a way To visualize it and to elevate Thinking about these better days I was blinded by stupidity It left me here to bleed I couldn't see the way out Cause I've never met my needs I was desperate for the answers And I wanted to be healed I put up with my BS And I never sealed the deal Way up I could never reach it It would play up Stay rushed Take a chill pill I was paced up Looking for the answers I could never make a lay up I became an honest man I just gotta say it straight up I want be the change Bad memories erased I look for better days But life is not a race If you want flow You gotta go with your gut Always know what your heart says It's friends that make you better Say no to the dope If it is an escape And try to make The best of everyday You have to make start somewhere do it here You have to make a start sometime do it now I think about better days I Visualize them and they elevate Every-time I meditate They tell me that it's getting late But this life is not that kind of race I know I can make a change I'm in it for the long haul If you down to ride it's your call Cause I know I can find a way To visualize it and to elevate Thinking about these better days
