Better

Yeah
You know, you know
You know

Hey, this is the last time I let somebody steal my peace
If you ain't adding to the plate, shorty, you can't eat
Don't be acting like you know me, bro, we don't speak
A lot of people come and go, but it won't be me
You can't break me, I just take control of the environment
Get on worked up and then I put him in retirement
I won't lose sleep if you don't have my back
But don't you try to front on me 'cause you can't take that back

I'm still gashed regardless if they like it or not
I been bustin' out at the seams, I don't fit in the box
Cutting people out the picture, yeah, you might get cropped
And I don't care dead weight so you gone get dropped
Bringing it back to perspective, I been so reflective
Had to guard my energy, and now I'm so protective
I don't waste time trying to prove myself
I can't please you so much that I lose myself

I think it's way past time I remove myself
I done tried everything, it's time to choose myself
And I don't need your cosign
God did it when he threw another lifeline
Yeah, you know it's my time

I don't need bitter, I just do better
I let people come and go like the weather, don't sweat them
I don't even wave my energy
I just cut them off from the team
And they be like, "Ooh, ooh, ooh" (ooh, ooh)
They be mad I'm making moves
All up in them feelings like, ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah)
I don't get bitter, I just get better and I make moves

Hey, this is the last time I ever dimmed my light and make you feel better
People try to silence you when they know they ain't on your level
I been adding point, I don't fight, I just walk a way
Rather keep my peace and try to beg somebody else to stay
I used to fear abandonment
Circle stay big and insecurities were evident
Everybody talking but they don't address the elephant
Read the room, shorty, nothing that you say is relevant
You talking with no evidence

I don't get bitter 'bout it, I just make better boundaries
People think you owe them something, I don't want them choose 'round me
I got two moes, the second and five
When I'm triggered, I just load it up and I aim higher
When you take L after L after L, every time you learn some
Every bridge is not for you, sometimes you got to burn some
I don't talk back, I take names
And watch how they get mad when you change
And they quick to shift the blame, yeah

And you a itty bitter crab in buggy, yeah
Now, only time you see success is when you lucky, yeah
You think somebody owe you somethin', just nothin' yeah
You don't won the lotto, talk when you been bluffing, yeah
All I ever wanted was to focus on my own lane
People love to talk, but they don't ever run their own race
I've been taking off 'cause I been focus on my pace
People come and go, and I just hit them with the "okay"

I don't need bitter, I just do better
I let people come and go like the weather, don't sweat them
I don't even wave my energy
I just cut them off from the team
And they be like, "Ooh, ooh, ooh" (ooh, ooh)
They be mad I'm making moves
All up in them feelings like, ooh, ooh, ooh
I don't get bitter, I just get better and I make moves
