Better Person (feat. Nova)

I taking it back
Wishing we could go back
To a place that was more peaceful

But I'm facing the fact
Due to how you react
That it can't be that simple

Even though it may seem
That my dream will end
When my eyes with the dawn Open

I know it can be
I'm just hoping you'll see
That I can be a better person

If given the chance I feel we could Advance
Apply progress with patience
I'd be a better man

My crimes we so flagrant
I completely understand
Your apprehension and Frustration
Once again

We at this intersection where I Didn't learn my lesson
And that hurt me
Made the wrong left in Albuquerque

Got me in the clinic like
What's up Doc
It's burning when I urine so I Need whatever meds you got
Damn

I taking it back
Wishing we could go back
To a place that was more peaceful

But I'm facing the fact
Due to how you react
That it can't be that simple

Even though it may seem
That my dream will end
When my eyes with the dawn Open

I know it can be
I'm just hoping you'll see
That I can be a better person

Takin back knowing I could be Better
Cleansing and forgiveness of my Sins if I confess em
Probably too many for the Moment
And too many other moments

It's hard to stay focused
Like what's the motive
If I don't want to walk inside the Door until it closes
Running away doesn't seem so Bad
Until we want what we can't have

Yeah
Gently used Smooth Criminal
They threw dirt but I grew Through the ridicule

Maybe getting by but I'm hardly Proof
Feel like David watching babes Bathing on the roof

We see it on the news it's become Plain
They treat us like silhouettes at a Gun range
The question is how do we escape It
Or are we better off bitter and Abrasive
Either way I can't take it

I taking it back
Wishing we could go back
To a place that is more peaceful

But I'm facing the fact
Due to how you react
That it can't be that simple

Even though it may seem
That my dream will end
When my eyes with the dawn Open

I know it can be
I'm just hoping you'll see
That I can be a better person
