Better Man
K. Smith Lyrics

Thinkin' about us
Reflecting on our relationship

And I know it's hard
Acknowledging the difficulty of the situation

I've been drinkin' for hours
Using alcohol to cope with the situation

Up in different bars
Frequenting various drinking establishments

Dangerous habits
Recognizing his self-destructive behavior

She can see the scars
The singer's partner is aware of the damage being caused

'Cause I've been thinkin' about us
The relationship is the cause of his distress

And it must be hard
Sympathizing with his partner's perspective

We should put it to bed
They need to resolve the issue

Don't get in it again
They shouldn't revisit the problem in the future

So come sleep with me instead
Finding comfort in each other

Let it out of our heads
Release the tension and anxiety surrounding the issue

I been fightin' with the old me
Struggling with his past actions

You make it better when you hold me
Comforted and reassured by his partner's touch

I'm tryna rewrite our stories
Working to create a better narrative for their relationship

'Cause I wanna be a better man
Motivated to improve himself for his partner

I stop breathin' in the fire
Stopping destructive behavior and habits

'Cause I wanna take it higher
Striving for a better future with his partner

Give you all that you desire
Determined to provide for his partner's needs and wants

Beggin' for somethin'
Desperate for a solution

Standin' in the dark
Feeling lost and uncertain

'Cause my thoughts gettin' heavy
Overwhelmed by his emotions

In my head and heart
Troubled mentally and emotionally

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, yeah
Vocalizing his desire for change

I just wanna be a better man
Focusing on personal growth
