Treat You Better
YoungBoy Never Broke Again Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Be with the one who love you (This Vade on the keys)
I think he can treat you better
I ain't got no trust, that's why I duck you
When I know I should do better, when I know I should be better, I do better
Let me love you in my own way, that's from a distance
I said "Fuck you", I was on them drugs and I was trippin'
I can't be for you 'cause I'm not for no one, but like no one, I'll be there for you
I'ma have your back and blow my strap just like a thug do

Ayy, hit my phone if that pussy nigga rough you
Make him buppy down with them cutters when we come through
Your lil' nigga 'til the end, baby, I can't never dump you
When you can't make it to your friends, baby, I'm the one you run to
I'm high if you couldn't look me in my eyes, baby
Don't tell no lies, baby, don't come out in disguise, baby
You feeling dude, he turn you up, I'm on the side, baby
I'm just thinkin', is it that I'm crazy?
I'm completely out of my mind, baby
We tote four tools, we be tryna knock 'em when we slide
I zip four fools, I probably zip your manes and make you cry
Ayy, I can't hold you, I don't stay the same, you gon' need another guy
I done passed my level, way beyond, on top the sky and still gon' tell you

Be with the one who love you
I think he can treat you better
I ain't got no trust, that's why I duck you
When I know I should do better
When I know I should be better, I do better
Let me love you in my own way, that's from a distance
I said "Fuck you", I was on them drugs and I was trippin'
I can't be for you 'cause I'm not for no one
But like no one, I'll be there for you
I'ma have your back and blow my strap just like a thug do

I can't tell that you been real, 100, true
That you love me, bitches love me, too
Numbers don't like, homie, I
And I can tell
You fuck with me but you fuck with that too
So for that, I can't fuck with you

Be with the one who love you
I think he can treat you better
I ain't got no trust, that's why I duck you
When I know I should do better
When I know I should be better, I do better
Let me love you in my own way, that's from a distance
I said "Fuck you", I was on them drugs and I was trippin'
I can't be for you 'cause I'm not for no one




But like no one, I'll be there for you
I'ma have your back and blow my strap just like a thug do

Overall Meaning

The song "Treat You Better" by YoungBoy Never Broke Again is about a man who is struggling to come to terms with his feelings for a woman. He acknowledges that he hasn't always treated her in the best way and that he lacks trust, but he still cares deeply for her. The chorus encourages the woman to be with someone who loves her and can treat her better, but the verses reveal the singer's conflicting emotions and desire to be there for her despite his flaws.


The opening lines of the song introduce the theme of finding someone who loves and treats you well, which is reinforced in the chorus. The singer then admits that he knows he should do better and be better for the woman he cares for. However, he also acknowledges that he struggles with trust and has made mistakes in the past, leading him to avoid her.


Despite this, the singer expresses a desire to love the woman in his own way, even if it means keeping his distance. He also promises to be there for her and support her in the way he knows how. The second verse takes a darker turn, with the singer talking about violence and his willingness to protect her. He also questions the woman's loyalty and honesty, suggesting that she might not be fully committed to him.


Overall, "Treat You Better" is a complex exploration of love and trust, and the difficulties that can arise when these emotions are at odds with one another. The singer's conflicting feelings and desire to do better make him a relatable character, and the chorus's message of finding someone who treats you well is universally applicable.
