Better Days
A.L.A.M.I Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm on the road to bigger, better days
I'm on the road to bigger, better days
I paved the street that I am walking in
I shouldn't focus on wrongs
Gotta keep it strong
Take my feet out the mud and walk through the fog
Got some dirt on my thoughts
But I'll dust them off
I shouldn't focus on wrongs
Gotta keep it strong
I shouldn't focus on wrongs
This shit's a lockdown but I'm about to break free
Falling for her was a deadly sin
She's twisted and crazy like Harley Quinn
But now rap's my addiction and I'm about to give in
Yeah, give in (Hey)
Embrace the devil within
The past I'm leaving
And I'll become king
Of this shit ass world that I happen to live in (Uh)
Fuck all the times that you made me feel weak
Fuck all the times that you didn't let me speak
Fuck all the times you made me look like a freak
You're just all lame, I'm the one that's unique
Yeah, unique
That's why we never clicked
So I'll keep my head up and stay true to myself
No matter how many times I get critiqued
I got tired of your lack of compassion (What?)
Too many promises but very few actions
At one point we were magnets causing attraction
But as time went by nothing could cause a reaction
I should've proceded with caution
But I didn't just to get satisfaction
Sometimes satisfaction is just a distraction
So now I'll stay true to my lyrics and write em' with passion
You never cared about anyone but yourself
Getting attached only hurted myself
So I'm breaking the spell, I'm escaping this hell
I'm closing this book and Imma leave it on the shelf
And burning the pictures as well because I deserve better
And I'm on the road to bigger better
I'm on the road to bigger, better days
I'm on the road to bigger, better days
I paved the street that I am walking in
I shouldn't focus on wrongs
Gotta keep it strong
Take my feet out the mud and walk through the fog
Got some dirt on my thoughts
But I'll dust them off
I shouldn't focus on wrongs
Gotta keep it strong
I shouldn't focus on wrongs
On this one I'm blaming myself
Everyone makes mistakes but I'm breaking the spell
You promised me heaven but put me through hell
So I'm no longer hearing no matter how hard you yell (Uh)
Time to expel, uh
Time to dispel, uh
Even with all of your shit
I wish you nothing but well
I gotta go fast like a bank run (Let's go)
Lyrics I shoot like a damn gun (Brrt)
Time left for you? I got none
You were just taking my soul like Shang Tsung
Damn wrong, Keep calm yo
Kickin' this shit like Liu Kang does
You can clearly see I won't hang on
On any part of this damn song
It's difficult carrying this rage
Too many stories but I was trapped in a page
Like I was kicked in the face
Or punched in the nuts by Johnny Cage
Finally willing to change
Even if it feels odd and strange
Odd and strange, like an alien and shit from space
But I'm closing the page, right click and erase
You never cared about anyone but yourself
Getting attached only hurted myself
So I'm breaking the spell, I'm escaping this hell
I'm closing this book and Imma leave it on the shelf
And burning the pictures as well because I deserve better
And I'm on the road to bigger better
I'm on the road to bigger, better days
I'm on the road to bigger, better days
I paved the street that I am walking in
I shouldn't focus on wrongs
Gotta keep it strong
Take my feet out the mud and walk through the fog
Got some dirt on my thoughts
But I'll dust them off
I shouldn't focus on wrongs




Gotta keep it strong
I shouldn't focus on wrongs
