Better Me

Look Look I'm just tryna take a little time Cause honestly I feel I might have set my expectations high, overestimated my capability to hit a target if I try Cause they say practice makes it perfect, but perfect ain't always right when perspective comes into light I just accept my flaws, as long as I gave my all My teeth don't need to be white, imperfection may not be bright Still better as long as I I'm satisfied with the outcome I have seemed to arrive at But lately I've been feeling I keep blaming myself I'm putting hours in the work but it don't seem to translate Probably a language barrier that seems it never could break I'm throwing jabs, hoping it cracks but doesn't seem like it'll cave And so my heart is in the pain enjoy the struggle when it comes Cause I know at the end there's a reward But its' still got me wishing on a well And I'm wishing for my health, wishing that I could prevail So that I could live to tell that I did my part But just a little bit I wish I did not I'm going my way Though just a little bit I hope I did stay But I see those stars, I see the sky I feel my heart, I changed my mind So I followed my heart Just a little bit, I'm glad I did start To be a better me I'm working harder trying to make up for the Times I did lax that I'd never get back I know the damage's impact so I'm trying to repair it Make excuses, repeat it over like I'm a parrot But I still carry beyond Overseas like a pirate, I search the water for gold But when close I seem to relapse Can't keep my head above the water, I can't seem to relax Cause if I even give an inch then everything would collapse So if I'm honest I would rather leave my things and swim back But all the effort that brought me here got me turning my head Squinting my eyes, searching for land before I lose all my breath Cause if I push a bit further then I am sure to make it And so my heart is in the pain enjoy the struggle when it comes Cause I know at the end there's a reward But its' still got me wishing on a well And I'm wishing for my health, wishing that I could prevail So that I could live to tell that I did my part But just a little bit I wish I did not I'm going my way Though just a little bit I hope I did stay But I see those stars, I see the sky I feel my heart, I changed my mind So I followed my heart Just a little bit, I'm glad I did start To be a better me I did my part But just a little bit I wish I did not I'm going my way Though just a little bit I hope I did stay But I see those stars, I see the sky I feel my heart, I changed my mind So I followed my heart Just a little bit, I'm glad I did start To be a better me
