“The Better Me” is a trippy and fun rock song about finding self-acceptance. At the center of the hurricane of shrill guitars and heavy rock instruments, is the sweet self-assured voice of singer Ritzy Bryan.

[Verse 1]
Pushing the shame of my back
Telling the soul walk tall and don't lose track
Kickin' it out on my shoes
It's weighing me down, it's weighing me down

[Chorus]
Oooh

Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
Oooh
[Bridge 2]
Why I have to live
Why I have to live
I have to live with you
I know why
