Better Off Lyrics by CalenRaps

What’s Left Of Me

0

[Verse 1]
I know nothing lasts forever, my smile is a phase
If one thing goes wrong, I'm spiraling for days
Life used to be amazing, now it's just a maze
It's like everybody left and I went right into a rage
It was me and AK
Told 'em I'll keep giving bars, til we see a payday
Cause all I had was one wish and it ain't meeting Ray J
Since watching 106 and park with Free and AJ
Didn't really think a little weed would be the gateway
Til I smoked my first bowl of spice working overnight
Tryna get a different dose of life
Know I shoulda crapped out from all the days I rolled the dice
Way before I blackеd out on stage at a open mic
And chose to writе these songs about shortcomings
Dealt with a few demons, now more coming
Staying up late sleeping til four something
Momma say I'm trying to avoid something
But I don't even know what
Made a bunch of bread and ended up with a donut
Was never really shown much
Love or respect, that's why I never gave no trust
To anyone except the one who make my whole soul blush
Member being broke, she was taking care of both us
I was at my lowest and she never made no fuss
Girl I see you as the goat 'cause you the most clutch
Told them niggas it's gon' be a gold rush

[Pre-Chorus]
But they ain't wanna listen still
Ain't sniff a pill since my nigga died from fentanyl
I'm just tryna sit and chill
I just want mills and a villa in the hidden hills
And I ain't got it yet, but I know I can get it still
And I ain't never did drill
Might've hit a couple licks
Lost me a couple times
Luckily recovered it
Swear I been through the fire
Something like an oven mit
Thinking 'bout the past is more taxing than the government

[Chorus]
We was supposed to be close friends riding til the road ends
Least that's what I was hoping
I ain't saying that my hearts all broken
I just wish we coulda spoken
Cause why I gotta find out from all these other other sources
You been living life like I am not important
I ain't gon' sit around crying tryna force it
I was better off before this

[Verse 2]
It's been a minute, I still wonder how you been queen
I know my commitment is some shit you should've been seen
I'm hoping you don't take offense to how I vent things
Shit I don't care if this one even get streams
These writtens in my genes like inseams
Growing up pops tried getting on the big screen
I hit 100 million views in 2016
Sometimes I think I'm living his dream
But I can't even dream when I try to sleep
Paralysis got me paralyzed don't know how to speak
Lost so much love, now my heart is playing hide and seek
Try to look above, but it's like God ain't had no time for me
For something like a year straight
I know my lack of confidence was all fear based
Afraid of the chance, I may not get a fair shake
But a chance is what it takes to reach a rare place
I told 'em I was very great

[Pre-Chorus]
But they ain't wanna listen still
Ain't sniff a pill since my nigga died from fentanyl
I'm just tryna sit and chill
I just want mills and a villa in the hidden hills
And I ain't got it yet, but I know I can get it still
I ain't never did drill
Might've hit a couple licks
Lost me a couple times
Luckily recovered it
Swear I been through the fire
Something like an oven mit
Thinking 'bout the past is more taxing than the government

[Chorus]
We was supposed to be close friends riding til the road ends
Least that's what I was hoping
I ain't saying that my hearts all broken
I just wish we coulda spoken
Cause why I gotta find out from all these other other sources
You been living life like I am not important
I ain't gon' sit around crying tryna force it
I was better off before this
