Good Better Best
Kid Quill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Pay very close attention
Man, this one took some minutes
Man, this one took some dollars
But I did got it finished
Man, this one kept me waitin'
This one tested patience
Man this the outcome of a hundred late night conversations
The devil paid his visits, I just kept my distance
I pray that when my moment comes I dont slip and miss it
I know this is the intro, but it's way to good to skip it
I make music for people not positions

Ok, I think a little too headstrong
My best friend is my headphones
I write raps and sing songs
Got a playlist full of theme songs
If i was back in 7th grade, then this would be my ringtone
No, I can't talk for too long, phone bill be too stong, I know
Kids in college used to hate on the flow
But now they hit me up to get some tickets to a show
And I'm like 'hell yeah' I would love it if you go
But, tick's are $25 and you can buy them at the door
So this what god brought me for, truthin' on my piano chords
Show my teeth and let it roar
Way to real to be ignored
I know you got a busy day, you ain't got no time to waste
But thanks for coming and joinin' me

Join me
Yeah...
Ooo
Yeah

Ok, yeah, this ain't for the radio
Yeah this one for the reel
My heart is on my sleeve and imma tell you how i feel
It ain't gon' be a long summer, it ain't gon' be a long year
What ever you do, it gon' be a long career
Stick it out

Good, better, best
Never let it rest
Til' your good is your better and your better is your best

Good, better, best
Never let it rest
Til' your good is your better and your better is your best

Good, better, best
Never let it rest
Til' your good is your better and your better is your best

Good, better, best
Never let it rest
Til' your good is your better and your better is your best
