Lyrics for Better Than That

See the rock in my hand Took it from another man Took it from another plan A final escape out the back of the door with the swinging handle Rusty refrigerator that never worked 'cause it was too full Full of your shit that got moldy 'cause there was too much moisture In the air, in the air (ah) Look into my eyes and tell me that I'm lying, that I'm lying Better than, better than (better than) B-b-b-b-better than, better than most Look me in the eye and say that I am blind and searching 'Cause it's all alone (oh, oh), better than (oh) B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-better than most (B-better than, oh) Condescending, underlying Under tension, underlying, in I dug Lick it up without my fingers and lock in a ride (oh) It's your body, it's your liking If your water was a luxury, then I ain't gonna wanna want it no more Want it no more, 'cause I'm B-b-b-b-better than that And though I knew, I - And though I knew, I knew, I knew, I knew And though I knew it, did that shit anyway Took the course anyway, yeah (yeah) I don't take it back, I don't go back there I don't take that back for nothing (take that back for nothing) Got my life on it, got my life on it 'Cause I'm b-b-b-b-better than that (better than that) B-b-b-b-better than that (Better than that, better than that) Ripped the curtain off the blinds Ripped the curtain off the blinds Let the light in, let the light in The black light aligns with my sins of yesterday But I wouldn't, but I wouldn't, but I wouldn't do it differently Differently, differently than it Thin it into lines, gonna drip this into time When you drip this into life Life, life, line Cut it any differently, I'm Seeping 'round in my head, I am taking a clover Acting alone, I am taking it over Taking the L on this one Taking the L on this one time Smoke a blunt to the face Just so I couldn't get over the things that I knew That I didn't know (one) Took an L on this one, I swear Ooh, I swear And I took, and I took, and I took, and I took And I shoved, and I pushed And I shoved, and I pushed And I shoved, and I pushed, and I shoved B-b-b-better than B-b-b-better than rest (B-b-better than) rest (b-b-better than) What's better than, better than rest? (That, that, that, that) (B-b-b-better than that, that, that, that)
