Talia is talking about self-improvement. Moving on from a past relationship (Boy clearing not getting the message)… Now moved on from a past relationship, she is now improving herself on becoming a “better” person.
[Verse 1]
Boy, you better hurry up, outta luck
Missin' you but I ain't missin' much, outta touch
Lost the trust, I had to give you up
But my love is enough
And all of the above, the above
You hoping that I change my mind, request declined
Working hard and getting on my grind
I lost time for you
Boy you never sympathised
That was a sign, don't you whine
This is a goodbye (A goodbye)
[Pre-Chorus]
One day you were here and now you're not
Scared of change but I think you know I won't call you up
I have learnt my lesson not to waste time on us
Told you I'm a winner, you're a runner up (A runner up)
[Chorus]
Cause I moved on to better things and better days
I've been working on a better me, stay out my way
In my lane, I'm in a better place, now you erased, out my brain
Too late begging on your knees, baby, you missed out on me
Better things and better days
I've been working on a better me, stay out my way
In my lane, I'm in a better place, now you erased, out my brain
Too late begging on your knees, baby, you missed out on me
[Verse 2]
Boy, you better shut it now, you're too loud
Spinning words, trying to spread it round, far too proud
I don't know what you were talking 'bout, we're are not bound
I walked out
Give me back my crown
This is over now
[Pre-Chorus]
One day you were here and now you're not
Scared of change but I think you know I won't call you up
I have learnt my lesson not to waste time on us
Told you I'm a winner, you're a runner up (A runner up)
[Chorus]
Cause I moved on to better things and better days
I've been working on a better me, stay out my way
In my lane, I'm in a better place, now you erased, out my brain
Too late begging on your knees, baby, you missed out on me
Better things and better days
I've been working on a better me, stay out my way
In my lane, I'm in a better place, now you erased, out my brain
Too late begging on your knees, baby, you missed out on me
[Bridge]
Scared of change but I think you know I won't call you up
(Baby, you missed out on me)
I have learnt my lesson not to waste time on us
[Chorus]
Cause I moved on to better things and better days
I've been working on a better me, stay out my way
In my lane, I'm in a better place, now you erased, out my brain
Too late begging on your knees, baby, you missed out on me
Better things and better days
I've been working on a better me, stay out my way
In my lane, I'm in a better place, now you erased, out my brain
Too late begging on your knees
I moved on to better things and better days
I've been working on a better me, stay out my way
In my lane, I'm in a better place, now you erased, out my brain
Too late begging on your knees, baby, you missed out on me
Better things and better days
I've been working on a better me, stay out my way
In my lane, I'm in a better place, now you erased, out my brain
Too late begging on your knees, baby, you missed out on me
