Better Off Lyrics

I know nothing lasts forever

My smile is a phase

If one thing goes wrong

I'm spiraling for days

Life used to be amazing

Now it's just a maze

It's like everybody left

And I went right into a rage

It was me and AK

Told em I'll keep giving bars

Til we see a payday

Cuz all I had was one wish

And it ain't meeting Ray J

Since watching 106 & park

With Free and AJ

Didn't really think a little weed

Would be the gateway

Til I smoked my first bowl of spice

Working overnight

Trynna get a different

Dose of life

Know I shoulda crapped out

From all the days I rolled the dice

Way before I blacked out

On stage at a open mic

And chose to write

These songs about shortcomings

Dealt with a few demons

Now more coming

Staying up late

Sleeping til four something

Momma say I'm trying to avoid something

But I don't even know what

Made a bunch of bread

And ended up with a donut

Was never really shown much

Love or respect

That's why I never gave no trust

To anyone except the one

Who make my whole soul blush

Member being broke

She was taking care of both us

I was at my lowest

And she never made no fuss

Girl I see you as the goat

Cuz you the most clutch

Told them niggas

It's gon be a gold rush

But they ain't wanna listen still

Ain't sniff a pill

Since my nigga died from fentanyl

I'm just trynna sit and chill

I just want mills

And a villa in the hidden hills

And I ain't got it yet

But I know I can get it still

And I ain't never did drill

Might've hit a couple licks

Lost me a couple times

Luckily recovered it

Swear I been through the fire

Something like an oven mit

Thinking bout the past

Is more taxing than the government

We was supposed to be close friends

Riding til the road ends

Least that's what I was hoping

I ain't saying that my hearts

All broken

I just wish we coulda spoken

Cause why I gotta find out

From all these other other sources

You been living life like

I am not important

I ain't gon sit around

Crying trynna force it

I was better off before this

It's been a minute

I still wonder how you been queen

I know my commitment

Is some shit you should've been seen

I'm hoping you don't take offense

To how I vent things

Shit I don't care if this one even get streams

These writtens in my genes like inseams

Growing up pops tried

Getting on the big screen

I hit 100 million views in 2016

Sometimes I think I'm living his dream

But I can't even dream

When I try to sleep

Paralysis got me paralyzed

Don't know how to speak

Lost so much love

Now my heart is playing and seek

Try to look above

But it's like God ain't had no time for me

For something like a year straight

I know my lack of confidence

Was all fear based

Afraid of the chance

I may not

Get a fair shake

But a chance is what it takes

To reach a rare place

I told em I was very great

But they ain't wanna listen still

Ain't sniff a pill

Since my nigga died from fentanyl

I'm just trynna sit n chill

Just want mills

And a villa in the hidden hills

And I ain't got it yet

But I know I can get it still

I ain't never did drill

Might've hit a couple licks

Lost me a couple times

Luckily recovered it

Swear I been through the fire

Something like an oven mit

Thinking bout the past is more taxing

Than the government

We was supposed to be close friends

Riding til the road ends

Least that's what I was hoping

I ain't saying that my hearts

All broken

I just wish we coulda spoken

Cause why I gotta find out

From all these other other sources

You been living life like

I am not important

I ain't gon sit around

Crying trynna force it

I was better off before this
