Better - Ama Lou

Even if you heard me, I wasn’t speaking

Tell me that you saw, no, I wasn’t peeking

Don’t let my ghost be forsaken

I was waiting on y’all to fill my grave in

'Cause you know I’m so much better

Run it 'til it’s just right

I been watching the whole time

My particular is not pride, yeah, yeah

Fuck those whispers in your circle

I will never lean in

Snakes redefining terms

And they named us best friends

Pigeons were birds that we tried saving

But I’ll never waste time on the same bitch again

'Cause I can be so much better

Anticipate the sunrise, it will buy you some more time

I won’t see you in my next life, yeah, yeah

'Cause I’m made to be better

No, I was never worried 'bout the pressure

Say I’m up next but whatever

You’d have that be lies, that wouldn’t be wise

You know it could be better, better ('Cause I could be so much better)

Oh, disconnected phone lines

I’ve been calling my whole life, yeah, yeah

Apprehended confines, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh

Yo, I wasn’t really mad and I had no reason

Your competition’s fake, it all comes in seasons

There’s only one Ama who they mean when they say it (Ama, who?)

I’m all over mood boards at your label

Oh I see you tried (Aw)

The city raised me good, born in '98 (N-16)

Oh, come for me again, that’d be your mistake

I ain’t violent, but you won’t be safe

No need for it, my pen works in other ways

Better, better

Anticipate the sunrise, it will buy you some more time

But I still won’t see you in my next life, yeah, yeah

'Cause I’m made to be better

No, I wasn’t even thinking 'bout the pressure

Say I’m up next but whatever, whatever

You’d have that be lies, that wouldn’t be wise

You know it could be better, better ('Cause I could be so much better)

Oh, disconnected phone lines

I’ve been calling my whole life, yeah, yeah

Apprehended confines, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh (Apprehended confines)

You won’t catch me grieving (Won't)

I’ll make time this evening (Catch me grieving)

I run into fires, yeah, you seen it

'Cause I’ve mastered this blaze before

I’m so sick, yeah, of weeping (Of weeping)

Don’t take mine for weakness (Don't take mine for weakness)

The same shit that you be speaking

Let’s see who survives at all

'Cause I’m made to be better

No, I don’t give a fuck about your pressure (I don’t give a fuck about your

pressure)

Say I’m up next but whatever

You’d have that be lies, that wouldn’t be wise

You know it could be, could be, could be better ('Cause I could be so much

better)

Oh, disconnected phone lines

I’ve been calling my whole life, yeah yeah

Apprehended confines, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah (Ooh)

(Oh, dis-, oh, dis-, oh disconnected phone lines, yeah, yeah)

What’s up?

Hello, you okay?

You called me, sorry, I was in the shower

Um, so, I think it’s finished

You think what’s finished?

The EP…

No?!

Yes!

What?

Fucking finally!
