GrewSum - Better lyrics

I just want to be a better person
Or at least a better version
I'm tired of always flying off the
Hinges the minute things go bad
It's disturbing
I was never perfect or close to it even
I was always prone to believin'
That it wasn't me it was my demons
Thought that it was out of my
Control but nowadays I know
That that wasn't really the reason
I was being weak
I just wanted everything handed to me
Like the world owed me like it was mandatory
But I kept flippin' out and
It was branded on me
That I was unstable and they
Stuck me in that category
It was hard to fix it
Was people makin' decisions
Even though they don't know about the
Way that I'm really livin'
I just wanna be forgiven
So I'm makin' it my mission
So from this minute on I'm
Livin' my life different

I just wanna be better (better)
Better than I use to be
Better than I use to be
I just wanna be better (better)
Enough to make you believe
That I'm better than I use to be
I just want to be better

I just want to be a better person
Or at least a better version
I'm tired of feeling like nobody around
Me can relate and it's hurtin'
Puttin' up a front but it's lurkin'
Feelin' broken down 'cause the people
Around me who I love
Just judge what I do and they doubt me
I can say it doesn't bother
Me but really I drowning
Sinking to the bottom of depression
Surrounds me
But I finally caught my breath and resurfaced
Adjusted my mind and learned to rework it
Found my support within to keep workin'
And now I'm goin' after my
Dream with these verses
The moment that I made that switch
People started noticin' how great this is
A year ago I was sayin' I hate this shit
And now I know that inside of
Me is where greatness lives

I just wanna be better (better)
Better than I use to be
Better than I use to be
I just wanna be better (better)
Enough to make you believe
That I'm better than I use to be
I just want to be better

I just want to be a better person
Or at least a better version
I'm tired of always makin'
Excuses for losin'
When I ain't really movin' or
Puttin' the work in
Years went by I was losin'
My drive to be great
Fell off but that wasn't surprise
I didn't deserve to rise up, not in my eyes
I felt like I was slippin'
And not in my prime
But what I had to realize I was growin' up
Had a son
Took the time to really show him stuff
The longer had the time to
Work I'm blowin' up
Had to be a dad and that
Was all that was important
But now I got to show him
What his Daddy can do
And give that boy a better
Life than the average youth
And do it with the passion and
Truth that you can make
It doin' whatever you want you
Just have to choose

I just wanna be better (better)
Better than I use to be
Better than I use to be
I just wanna be better (better)
Enough to make you believe
That I'm better than I use to be
I just want to be better

I just wanna be better (better)
Better than I use to be
Better than I use to be
I just wanna be better (better)
Enough to make you believe
That I'm better than I use to be
I just want to be better
