Better Off
Ken Blvd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

You know how I'm coming

Anticipated I been in the wrong
And you gone play me but I won't be alone
Got a bad lil bitch I'm tryna
Drop her wrist
She a straight fiend tryna take that dick
And if I leave with her it's gone make you sick
But I know like you know
That we both been better off

And now the bitch going brazy
I mean the type of love she giving us outdated
But you can't see that so stuck in your ways
Audible on the play like I'm
The one to blame yeah
You could stop looking at me funny
Like what your man gone do
Probably blew a couple bags
Ain't make no bags with you
And you could tell that nigga run up
He'll get done up til' the sun up
Cause nigga I'm from New Orleans
And we don't play all the stuntin'
You used to be my best friend
Now your changing sides
I had to realize you were only
With my til' I rise
And now I'm up I'm on a wave
You thought I'd fall for all the games
So take a shot for the twist in the plot
Cause for now you're only fucking with lanes

Anticipated I been in the wrong
And you gone play me but I won't be alone
Got a bad lil bitch I'm tryna
Drop her wrist
She a straight fiend tryna take that dick
And if I leave with her it's gone make you sick
But I know like you know
That we both been better off

And you know that I upgrade to the next
And you gone try to throw shade we'll do your best
We gone keep shining like we posed to do
And i know you so well you wanting revenge
Don't try to pretend
And I can sense it in your movements
You don't have to do it
And it won't change me
You living in a lie
Back track a little and you will see
It's not that fun when you're on the losing team
Back then we argued to make up
My new chick we chase bags
And make love
You thought I'd be all alone

Anticipated I been in the wrong
And you gone play me but I won't be alone
Got a bad lil bitch I'm tryna
Drop her wrist
She a straight fiend tryna take that dick
And if I leave with her it's gone make you sick




But I know like you know
That we both been better off

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Better Off" by Ken Blvd delve into a complex narrative of relationships, personal growth, and self-realization. The opening lines set the tone for introspection and self-awareness, as the singer acknowledges being in the wrong and facing the consequences of their actions. Despite the allure of a new romantic interest, there is a recognition that the past relationship, while flawed, still held value and significance.


As the lyrics progress, a sense of disillusionment with the previous partner becomes evident. The reference to the partner going "brazy" suggests a volatile and chaotic love that is no longer sustainable. The singer seems to have outgrown the immaturity and drama of the past relationship, instead focusing on personal success and growth. The mention of being from New Orleans adds a layer of authenticity and pride, highlighting a sense of resilience and streetwise mentality.


The lyrics further explore the dynamics of the former relationship, revealing feelings of betrayal and abandonment. There is a realization that the previous partner may have only stayed around for personal gain, and now that the singer has risen to a new level, they are viewed differently. The decision to move on and pursue a more fulfilling connection is depicted as a form of empowerment and self-assertion.


Ultimately, the repeated refrain of "we both been better off" serves as a mantra of acceptance and closure. Despite the pain and challenges faced in the past, there is a sense of peace and resolution in acknowledging that both parties are better off apart. The lyrics speak to the bittersweet nature of growth and transformation, with the singer embracing a newfound sense of independence and resilience as they move forward from the past relationship.
