The lyrics to Quake City Mobsters' song 'Better Man' seem to be about a narrator who wishes they had done things differently in a past relationship. The repeated refrain of "I could have been a better man" suggests that the singer recognizes their faults and regrets not being a better partner. The line "I would be a better one with a second chance" indicates that the singer would try to do better if given the opportunity to try again.
The verse "I remember how I used to have long walks, long talks, feelings in the dark / Shenzhen yu remember me vividly" suggests that the relationship was once intimate and emotional. The line "let all us loose it here for it" implies that they may have let their emotions get the best of them and cause problems in the relationship. The singer then sees the ex-partner crying and wants them back, however, the line "I put the line right here and I am saying to be clear about it" suggests that they are drawing a line and setting boundaries. The final repetition of "Imma be right here yeah" suggests that the singer is still holding onto feelings for their ex-partner, even though they recognize the need for boundaries.
