A Better Me

A better me yeah A better me A better me I sit back and think how I use to be on the mean streets in the summer heat Raising hell trying to get to heaven letting these devils know I'm too cold they can't f*ck with me See I was born under pressure where you can pop a vessel and you drift forever lost out at sea All the mental shit that tried to suffocate my life I could barely breathe the air God gave for free Please Don't take it personal if I have to cut you off at the roots to grow a better me You'd understand if you was the same rose that had to grow from the concrete It get deep There's an old road Filled wit dust Trashed from debris When you look through the window of the soul What you may find is an old enemy But I told myself a long time ago if I was ever gone be free I had to take this one way road to redemption to find a better me A better me A better me, a better me A better me Better me There's an old road Filled wit dust Trashed from debris When you look through the window of the soul What you may find is an old enemy But I told myself a long time ago if I was ever gone be free I had to take this one way road to redemption to find a better me A better me A better me, a better me A better me Better me And I'm tired of the pain I caused to rain from above There's a storm coming and I didn't know how to shelter in place with love When the fight is finally over maybe I can take off the gloves Until then I'll be in the middle of the ring with my trigger finger up Whoop This ain't the time to break Note to self You can't run away My better half just asked me to stay But I think I came to the front door a too late So I moved out to find me a better place Jumped on the greyhound headed upstate Looking in the mirror I couldn't tell who I was anyway I couldn't tell Couldn't tell I couldn't tell ya Cause I'm a better me There's an old road Filled wit dust Trashed from debris When you look through the window of the soul What you may find is an old enemy But I told myself a long time ago if I was ever gone be free I had to take this one way road to redemption to find a better me A better me A better me, a better me A better me Better me There's an old road Filled wit dust Trashed from debris When you look through the window of the soul What you may find is an old enemy But I told myself a long time ago if I was ever gone be free I had to take this one way road to redemption to find a better me A better me A better me, a better me A better me Better me
