Better Days ft. T. Anansi Lyrics

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
