Better Way

Brabo, Smoke

Yeah, I seen the dark side of pain
At a very young age
And was given heavy meds to make it all go away
That didn't work and still I hurt
Inside of my soul
With no cure from a doctor, I had nowhere to go (Nowhere to go)
Prescriptions didn't give me the relief I was sold
'Cause medication never has been the cure we were told
And my parents didn't know they were doing their best
With a kid who had issues with anger and stress

(Rah)
More pills couldn't fix what was growing inside
I was diagnosed and treated with a chemical lies (Lies)
A better living is a given in this world were from
And I found the truth hiding on the tip of my tongue (Okay)
You keep us all safe so business succeeds
And watch us all die from man-made disease (Yea)
We're tired of being treated like rats in a cage
I wanna free myself from this political maze

You can't kill my pain and make it go away
You can't write me a prescription for a better day
The world says I'm different but that's okay
Just know were all looking for a better way
Yeah
You can't kill my pain and make it go away
You can't write me a prescription for a better day
The world says I'm different but that's okay
Just know were all looking for a better way

How many times we got to sit and watch the casket close
Till we realize that were going down a broken road
Stop telling us these pills are meant to kill the pain
Chasing the high but it never seems to feel the same
My partner died at 27 tryna kill a void and
All he left behind for us with his baby boy
He used to tell me he was lost and didn't have a choice
A lot of doctors write the scripts but they don't hear the voice
It's like they never put they're effort in to try to know him
If you couldn't understand then why'd you diagnose him?
I hope you finally found peace and your pains been put too ease
And if your out here living bling I hope one day you can see

You can't kill my pain and make it go away
You can't write me a prescription for a better day
The world says I'm different but that's okay
Just know were all looking for a better way
Yeah
You can't kill my pain and make it go away
You can't write me a prescription for a better day
The world says I'm different but that's okay
Just know were all looking for a better way
A better way

Either took too many or we watched to little
Now your final breath was in the hospital
What we gonna do to answer the crime?
How many more times we got to say goodbye?
(Say goodbye)

You can't kill my pain and make it go away
You can't write me a prescription for a better day
The world says I'm different but that's okay
Just know were all looking for a better way
Yeah
You can't kill my pain and make it go away
You can't write me a prescription for a better day
The world says I'm different but that's okay
Just know were all looking for a better way
A better way
