Better ft. Pure Motifz Lyrics

Had to pick them up and put them down and let em' go

So many things in my past that I'm cutting off

I knew some people wouldn't last because they do the most

I don't got time for no drama I'm trying to make it on

Cause I got better right in front of me

I got better right in front of me

I got better right in front of me

I got better right in front of me

People running out of time you hear that click clock

And I know some people that be capping for that tick tock

I asked the Lord to give me all the strength for this walk

Know I got to keep it real homie this that real talk

Cause a lot of people tend to act hard but they look soft

Stepping in that muddy water but quick to take they socks off

Capping cause they can but like soda they not gone pop off

Playing with them demons you know they gone knock yo top off

People wanna act like who they'll never be

Grateful for the pain it made a better me

So thankful for the rain it came and sat on me

Really hateful it's a shame but it's fateful that these lames try to nap on me

Know I'm cooking with the sauce I let'em rest in peace

I ain't struggling no more, left my troubles on the floor

Had to shovel through the snow, kicked my problems out the door

Know I gained double for the times that I was low

Had to pick them up and put them down and let em' go

So many things in my past that I'm cutting off

I knew some people wouldn't last because they do the most

I don't got time for no drama I'm trying to make it on

Cause I got better right in front of me

I got better right in front of me

I got better right in front of me

I got better right in front of me

Be a mongoose

Immune to the venom they spitting

They gone be on you

So don't tell em' all your business

They'll make a long noose

Hang you out to dry like the dishes

And then be confused

How you escaped

They feeling convicted

If she down imma take her out like a l carte

She gotta love God or it's a wrap before we start

Cause without him, I'd be lost in the dark

I keep his name on my tongue and tatted on my heart

I could be Chip Skylark

But I'm Mark Chang, an alien

I don't belong to this world

But I'm a prince on Yugopotamia

I don't hide who I serve

And I don't need an alias

The ones who chatter about the cheddar

Turn out to be the laziest

I watched myself getting better right in front of me

I know there's better right in front of you

Jehovah says no matter what you've done you can run to me

Now it's up to you, what you gonna do

I really tried to have hope, but it's hard when you the only one that's trying to grow

Lying to cope

Unequally yoked

You need them to know

Holding on when the Lord already told me to go

How you can grow when people that's grown

Friends, aunts, gramps

Could be all of your own, still living in old, stuck in a trance,

Oil is spoil, bondage to holds, I can't stay gotta move on

Already know that there's better

Sometimes when you on that road

You gotta leave behind all those things back home

You gotta move the dirt if you trying to find gold

Even if that means you gotta walk alone

I hate that I had to leave em' in the cold

Don't want em' to freeze they toes, but being clones is what they chose to be

Though it's still love from me, Jehovah's King

And I know no matter where I go, He's got better for me
