DO BETTER Songtext
von Jerreau

I hit the homie like, "I′m sorry"
I just had an epiphany
I was makin' decisions based on scarcity
Forgive me
Now i know what abundance mean
He heard me out, but in his way rejected me
I felt a way, but shit, he did too
You can′t make people talk your sorries
Or forgive you
Might not be like it was, even if they do
People get to choose who they so grace to
I know that every sin ain't equal
And there's a spectrum
And you can′t assume people, should know better
Especially when you feel a way, and never tell ′em

Knew better, do better
If you knew better, you do better
They could be wrong, still some shit that I could do better
Knew better, do better


I get it, you gotta fight on that lie
Two things can be true, but the half truth a lie
And no man has bought a claim, that I ain't tried to make right
But boys will tell everybody, but you, what they don′t like
Shit could be zero percent your fault
But is a hundred your duty to right, right
That's why my shortcomings
Overshadow me at night
I think it′s me, I'm the only constant in my life
You know, man in the mirror self-reflect
But you know, the ego weak like the flesh
They say "only fools learn from they own mistakes"
Tryna forgive myself for some choices I made

Knew better, do better
If you knew better, you do better
They could be wrong, still some shit that I could do better
Knew better, do better

Uh
Moral bias got you thinkin′
You do better
I know
