Better Off

Thankful to make it to this moment
Opposition still lurking still hating to this moment
Jealousy and envious traits make an opponent
I'm an optimistic entrepreneur suckers is phony
I am not going to bend for you I am not going to break
If you question yourself do you still got faith
Different journey no disrespect we are not the same
Cuz what's the right lens without the proper frame
Tell me what's your time worth is it more than mine
Watching my kids grows up is there more to life
Making these songs wonder if I'll be immortalized
Is anybody else real I hear all sort of lies
Living through horrid times
So many distorted minds
Avoiding family scrolling through Instagram
Damn shh
I guess there's more to like
The more that I obtain
The more I feel deprived

Am I better off now than what I should have been (tell me)
Or did I fall short of everything I could have been (tell me)
Capable of more than the box that they put me in (tell me)
I'm just trying to do my best in this world of sin
Said am I better off now than what I should have been (tell me)
Or did I fall short of everything I could have been (tell me)
Capable of more than the box that they put me in (tell me)
I'm just trying to do my best in this world of sin

Lost way too many people should I shed a tear
Chasing my dreams which somehow have not yet appeared
Still searching for my purpose I'm not waiting for a reason
They tell me I'm too deep hope one day that I can reach em
Like material things to
But what does it bring you
And is it relatable to the people you sing to
Family so small not too many to cling to
Dressed in designer hope my soul is clean to
Money long but your character weak
Credibility shot limits you reaching your peak
Your brand is only as good as the company that you keep
So I'm surrounding myself with people that's better than me
The content you produce is just a reflection of you
Every story is different based on perspective you choose
The more that I obtain the more I feel deprived
Closer that I get to death the more I feel alive

Am I better off now than what I should have been (tell me)
Or did I fall short of everything I could have been (tell me)
Capable of more than the box that they put me in (tell me)
I'm just trying to do my best in this world of sin
Said am I better off now than what I should have been (tell me)
Or did I fall short of everything I could have been (tell me)
Capable of more than the box that they put me in (tell me)
I'm just trying to do my best in this world of sin
