Better Me

Ayo cheers to the better me, smiling more deserving this I'm earning shit getting better despite how worse it gets Tax bracket changed late hours i'm extra working shifts Rich is quiet so now I dress a bit more conservative I'm smelling like success, spray one million on my neck Momma just said she proud of me , I read it in a text Headache pills on my dresser everyday a nigga stressed But I fight through the pressure, make clean money through my mess uh College dropout, school of hard knock graduate That's why I'm good no matter how bad it gets Before I put my life in motion I imagined this Went through every passion chasing this being passionate The people full of it, ain't gon ever know the half of it And since I put myself first you'll never hear the last of it When ya'll was done with me, God went and did this magic trick Now i'm having more of everything for not having shit Now this a green light so I don't get a day off And I can't afford it if i'm getting what I prayed for I'm looking different skinny nigga put some hate weight on I'm getting happy so that's proly what they hate on Mi'ree call me when he need help on his homework And I still find time for him though I handle my own work Even if he still don't understand it's okay Cause he seeing how men 'posed to take care of their own first I run this shit with all my heart like a pacemaker So why complain and engage with the naysayers With too much character flaws to be some game changers They watch my life with opinions instead of chase paper Me and Robbie stayed up all night, build a foundation From belief in myself and emptying my savings An example of action nigga like f*ck the patience If I never went for it, I'd be stuck out here complaining And that would be draining, not how I would opt to live Why study the negatives when you positive I feel better you can tell it's obvious The sun peaking through the blinds ya'll know what time it is I'm more mature a better me is what you call that So if I miss your call, know that i'mma call back And if I did you wrong, i'll reach out and crawl back Just make sure you catch a nigga when I fall flat King
