Better than that
Better than that
You can do better than that
Seh you a leave and do better than me
Seh you a leave
Do better please
From yuh tell me yuh leaving
Mi tell yuh fi gwaan 'cause yuh fed up
But memba mi tun yuh inna star suh nuh drop the standard
Keep yuh head up
New brand Beamer just land pon the highway
Mi gone pick yuh fren up
She a tell me pon a wasteman block yuh guh end up
How yuh fi do mi dat gyal
Mi see seh yuh nuh rate man
How yuh fi lef the genna fi a wasteman
Put yuh inna bay name brand and a really so yuh come violate man
Dem gyal yah dem a Satan
Caah believe a me yuh really bring shame pon
Put yuh inna bay name brand and yuh really lef the genna fi a wasteman
My yute how you suh brite
A pon me you choose fi hype
But mi done know how the ting set
Yah chat bay tings true mi leave the life
But mi nuh feel nuh way 'cause mi dweet fi spite
'Cause yaave a bagga loose gyal like yuh naave nuh type
Yuh seh dozen + 10 mi nuh rate yuh vibe
Mek mi feel suh shame, mi haffi walk a night

'Cause all a gwaan a next chance you a wait pon

Put yuh inna bay name brand and a really so yuh come violate man
Dem gyal yah dem a Satan
Caah believe a me yuh really bring shame pon
Put yuh inna bay name brand and yuh really lef the genna fi a wasteman
Mi couldn't bother mek yuh stress mi
Tell yuh seh fi gwaan if yuh feel yuh wah lef mi

The song 'Better Than That' by Govana and Jada Kingdom is a conversation between two people who have separated, and one is left feeling hurt and betrayed by the other person's actions. The chorus repeats the phrase "better than that", encouraging the other person to improve themselves and their choices. The first verse seems to be Govana's side of the conversation, apologizing for his mistakes and promising to do better. He mentions buying a new car and picking up the other person's friend, trying to impress them and show that he has changed. The second verse is Jada Kingdom's response, expressing her disappointment and disbelief that the other person would leave a good thing for someone less deserving. She explains that she is better than that and refuses to settle for less.
Overall, the message of the song is about self-respect, self-improvement, and not settling for less than you deserve. It encourages people to recognize their worth and make positive changes in their lives rather than staying in unhealthy or unsatisfying situations.
