Better Off Lyrics by King Tu

The King’s Rise

2017

(Verse 1)
We was perfect together
I was King, you was my Coretta
Whether I was down you was always by my side like my rib
I would give up anything in the world just to live one night you
But you moving on
So it seems I gotta to
You gave me this name, you said it'd always be us two
Remember I said I was on a mission to get it
To get us both out the trap that we're living
I've been working on these lyrics harder than ever then you text me like "I don't think we can work
I think we're better off as friends"
I don't think that's how it works
It's supposed to be us till the end
You're supposed to be my other half
Never turn your back
Where you going at
Where you going now
I ain't ever let you down
But now you turn around
Gave up on everything we ever had
It's in the past
Praising I'm a nice guy yet I finish last
(Chorus)
Now we go on our own paths
Never know when this gon' last
Make the most of it
I bet I'll never forget the way you treated me like shit
But bet this gon' blast
Now I think of it I think I'm better off
Fuck it I don't need you in my life I'm stressing dog
All these sleepless nights swear that I'm falling off
But you was holding me back, I know I'm better off
(Verse 2)
Fuck it man I need you like you needed me
You don't understand what you even mean to me
You mean the whole world and more
Like whole worlds at war
But that don't even matter cause you are my girl
I mean you was
To be honest I think I just need a buzz
The way you got me feeling is really killing my vibe
Swear we be living it up every single time we ride
We was perfect together
I was King, you was my Coretta
Whether I was down you was always by my side like my rib
I would give up anything in the world just to live - nah fuck that shit
I'm out here playing for revenge
How're you gonna go pretend you ain't lost the realest
I've been out here grinding trying to make a killing just to survive
When we was together I know I made you feel alive
And every time you hear my shit you can't help but crack a smile
Fuck it yea it's been a while
Don't even try to text me on that shit yea run a mile
Yea I'm running my mouth but tell me who gon' wanna stop me
Put his bitch ass in the ring and I'll beat his ass like rocky
Fuck it, I'ma get ASAP ain't nobody gonna top me
Yea meet me at the corner or I can meet your ass at Paki
Been busting my ass off
Going harder than asphalt
We just tryna see this motherfucking cash fall
Bitch
(Chorus)
Now we go on our own paths
Never know when this gon' last
Make the most of it
I bet I'll never forget the way you treated me like shit
But bet this gon' blast
Now I think of it I think I'm better off
Fuck it I don't need you in my life I'm stressing dog
All these sleepless nights swear that I'm falling off
But you was holding me back, I know I'm better off
