Better Man Lyrics by Abstract

Super Human

2018

[Intro: Abstract]
Let me out, yeah
Let me out, yeah
Let me out, yeah

[Dialogue: Ms. Rachael Watson]
Can you elaborate on a personal connection to love?

[Chorus: Abstract]
These sober nights
When we dim down the lights
You and I made a home
Know you changed my whole life
Threw a match to my plans
Put your heart in my hands
And when I gave mine to you
You turned me into a better man

[Verse 1: Abstract]
With you I know I can take it anywhere
I can't stand your beauty, pullin’ up a chair
Let me stack this money then we outta here
Europe for the summer, I could take you there
Spend my time on you, but you know time is money
I do this all for you—no, they can't take it from me
I do this for the crew, that's my brothers overseas
For my sister, mother, father, to my family in the East
No, I see these rappers lost, everybody sound the same
No, y’all ain't ever leadin' 'less it's leadin' us astray
I stopped drinkin', started thinkin'
Gotta be a better way
Speakin’ through the universe with everything I say
No, y’all don't love no more, no
Y’all don't feel a thing, y'all
Hopped up on some Xans, only way that y'all can sing
Yo, who the hell is talkin’? Is it y'all or just the darkness?
That the drugs inside you author?
I been sober with my ink

[Chorus: Abstract]
These sober nights
When we dim down the lights
You and I made our own
Know you changed my whole life
Threw a match through open flames
Put your heart in my hands
And when I gave mine to you
You turned me into a better man

[Verse 2: Abstract]
You my light—my brightest star
I wished for you back when everything was dark
Keep me in orbit despite the gravity
Of the black hole that was born inside of me
Keep me on course through the mission I was given
Reason that I'm livin' biggest since the fission of my birth
You know I was supposed to die, but I'm thriving on this Earth
Must have been a reason why, who knew all that I was worth?
So I'ma make a change 'til my time's up (my time's up)
Staring at the range, I'ma climb up (I'ma climb up)
Show you our mistakes don't define us (mistakes don't define us)
On the sunny side's where you'll find us (you'll find us)
Used to paint with pain
On a different plane
I don't feel no shame
I learned how to change
But I had to get there through the flames
Don't compare no names
You can rest assured we ain't the same
Wanna be me, you can try
But your story isn't mine

[Chorus: Abstract]
These sober nights
When we dim down the lights
You and I made our own
Know you changed my whole life
Threw a match through open flames
Put your heart in my hands
And when I gave mine to you
You turned me into a better man
