It's Better This Way - Big K.R.I.T.

It’s better this way

You don’t really like what they play

On the radio every single day

It’s better this way

Ain’t no telling when it’s gon' change

Cause they all really say the same things

It’s better this way

If you looking for some original soul

I know where you should go

It’s better this way

Better this way

It’s better this way

You don’t really like what they play

On the radio every single day

It’s better this way

Ain’t no telling when it’s gon' change

Cause they all really say the same things

It’s better this way

If you looking for some original soul

I know where you should go

It’s better this way

It’s that, It’s that Krit remind you of that shit

You used to play

In your parents car

Had you feel in as if outer space

Was in your atmosphere

ATLiens all in your ear

Tired of being outcasted

I hope that means you outta here

Nowadays we flex so much

Get a check so much

We never chill

Way to drunk to drive

High as fuck

Plus we poppin pills

Celebrate the very shit

That slow us down and probably kill

Song ain’t even jamming though

Number one in every ville

Got that on repeat

Right before you wake

On your way to work

On your way to church

Stuck in traffic

Right before you go to sleep

I know you tired

Of that overdrive

That commercialized sing along

Wonder why they play this song all the time

It’s better this way

You don’t really like what they play

On the radio every single day

It’s better this way

Ain’t no telling when it’s gon' change

Cause they all really say the same things

It’s better this way

If you looking for some original soul

I know where you should go

It’s better this way

I didn’t know about you till you recognized

It wasn’t paid for or televised by the label

You couldn’t see it all on cable or

Advertised at award shows

I didn’t beef with none your favorite rappers

Or drop a sex tape after

Claiming it leaked off of my cellphone

When really I’m tryin' to sell more

And I wouldn’t just say anything

On the radio just to get fame

Or trap it out, gangster rap it out

Knowin' I ain’t never sold a thang

Bust a dime on the coffee table

Really shorty I went to school

I wasn’t friends with the son

Of the executive that ran the label

I had to pay dues

Wasn’t no blueprint where I come from

I couldn’t blow up in the backyard

Couldn’t walk the streets with my Cd

Give it to a DJ, like that’s hard

And he play it everyday 'till I got a deal

Album date and advanced tour

My takeover wasn’t overnight

To be honest with you, it was a gift from god

It’s better this way

You don’t really like what they play

On the radio every single day

It’s better this way

Ain’t no telling when it’s gon change

Cause they all really say the same things

It’s better this way

If you looking for some original soul

I know where you should go

It’s better this way

It’s better this way
