Better Days

Yeah
When I'm rapping only time they get the truth from me
Old feelings not dying is so new to me
And usually, I bottle it, up and not give a fuck
Lying to avoid self-scrutiny
The mutiny in my head could wage a thousands wars
I tumble to the abyss, I’m close to the devil's door
I pray for better days, got more drive in store
Like google, being wanted a feeling I can't recall
These women say they love me I never really believe ’em
Cause someone broke my heart, now paranoia won't leave me
Fear of never having love had me chasing demons
When you stop looking for the one that's when you finally meet her
Brian told me, that and 'Imma live by it
Yeah the money good, but it won't last like a temp writer
Yeah you got the gold but you ain't healthy, like a slim pirate
Starving for the devil's pie, even that won't make things sweet inside, nigga

My dawg told me, there’s a milli on the way for me
It ain’t enough though
My girl told me that she gotta get away from me
This world is cut throat
All these wrongs are gonna make me right
Bring me sun to fill up this night
I know, better days on the way

I'm still alone on this road, it ain’t knew to me
The stress of being something more will be the ruin of me
And truthfully, I'm all out of answers, I'm all out of stanzas
I'm running out of words and that’s the proof for me
That I'm tired of dreamin' dreams that don't materialize
Tired of facing mirrors seeing fear in my eyes
Tired of acting strong when I just want to cry
Tired of using “I'm fine” as my favorite disguise
When I cry my tears aim for the sky
My tears are touching the clouds, my world is upside down
I know that 'Imma survive like ferns in the wintertime
Even though it's been cold, I'll rise in due time
I still question is my watch on God's timing
It always makes me wonder, the words of Maroon 5
This feeling is do or die, this feeling is who am I
I'm trying to look inside to find the diamond I'm mining

My dawg told me, there's a milli on the way for me
It ain't enough though
My girl told me that she gotta get away from me
This world is cut throat
All these wrongs are gonna make me right
Bring me sun to fill up this night
I know, better days on the way

Money does not possess me
All things by necessity must work together for good
Money does not possess me

Uh, I think when sometimes someone stops and says "Well, you know, I think I'm really happy" I don't know if they're really happy. When you're happy, you're not thinking you're happy, you're feeling you're happy

Everyday they breathe and live is extended to them. They may be misinformed about the truth. They may be misguided. Someone has led them on the wrong path. A path of corruption and destruction. But yet God's mercy everyday that they live is extended to them and they have another opportunity to be saved
