Better

[Verse 1]
35 years on the planet
Grew up listening to Michael and Janet
Starry eyed kid in pajamas
Thinking one day
A steady diet of Brandy and Luther
Kim Burrell and Tonex I got used to
Burned so many songs from my computer
Thinking one day
Told my momma that I wanna be a singer
Told my daddy I'm a hell of a producer
Told my sister I'mma mean something to her
Maybe one day

[Hook]
Just you wait
And it's gon be my turn
And everyone will learn
That God's timing is better
Just you wait
And it will all make sense
And all the time we spent
Thinking it couldn't get better
It got better, yeah

[Verse 2]
Man the last few years been kinda lonely
And even when I get to chill with the homies
All of them went and got hitched up on me
I'm like, one day
It's hard to sing about love when you got none
Praying every day God send me the right one
All this work and no play got me wishin
That one day
Put my heart into the music cuz it's safer
Knowing damn well I need me a savior
Someone that I can be on my worst behavior with
One day

[Hook]
Just you wait
And it's gon be my turn
And everyone will learn
That God's timing is better
Just you wait
And it will all make sense
And all the time we spent
Thinking it couldn't get better
It got better, yeah
(Said it got better, oh, said it got better)

[Bridge]
If you think of giving up, lemme say it gets better
If you thinking it's too tough, lemme say it gets better
If you're tired of the bullshit I'm telling you it's better
Every boy and every girl don't you know it gets better

[Hook]
Just you wait
And it's gon be my turn
And everyone will learn
That God's timing is better
Just you wait
And it will all make sense
And all the time we spent
Thinking it couldn't get better

[Remix Hook]
You mad that I'm on my grind
(Why you mad)
Do better
Hatin' on me from the side
(Little old me)
Do better
You won't see me on my way up
(Nah)
Don't matter
I'm making moves for that paper
(That gwap)
Do better

[Verse]
You can jut call me Killmonger
I'm tryna get to Wakanda
You can't get there on a Honda
Tattoo fading like a marker
I'm tryna sit on the throne
And send that vibranium home
But y'all niggas stay in ya zone
While I'm burning up microphones
I ain't gotta win a Grammy
Before y'all niggas understand me
Used to want it very badly
Now I'm just tryna feed my family
Wanna see my people winning big
But they gotta want it for they self
Ain't got no more time to keep carrying
I won't be no good for nobody else

[B Section]
Nobody else can do what you do so stay in your lane
Don't worry bout me, and step up ya game
Ain't none of us rich, we gotta keep moving
When all of us win, the rest of them losing

[Hook]
You mad that I'm on my grind
Do better
Hatin' on me from the side
Do better
You won't see me on my way up
Don't matter
I'm making moves for that paper
Do better
You mad that I'm on my grind
Do better
Hatin' on me from the side
Do better
You won't see me on my way up
Don't matter
I'm making moves for that paper
Do better
Do better
Do better
Do better
