Better Myself - Merkules, Rittz

But I’m drowning in the deep end

And it feels like noone sees it

Someone please give me a reason I should stay

I can’t ahead of myself (myself)

I should try and better myself (myself)

But I’m drowning in the deep end

And it feels like noone sees it

Someone please give me a reason I should stay

Merkules:

Yeah, I got a plan to make a lot of changes

But it’s harder to breathe when your heart is racin'

I’ve been caught up in constant contemplation

That shit’s not a phase, it’s too complicated

Can’t concentrate when the cuts get deeper

If I were you I wouldn’t love me either

My problem is I’m too fuckin' eager

I got a taste of revenge and there’s nothing sweeter

So I’m numbin' the pain with another substance

Till I lose balance and my blood is rusted

Just another fuck up piss drunk in public

They don’t trust me at all like I’m up to somethin'

Like why can’t they ever hear me screamin'

The preacher told me I might need Jesus

Trapped in my head till I find some freedom

It feels like I’m some sort of evil genius

Please don’t talk to me cause I don’t want to be bothered

And I can’t fall asleep, I’m busy fighting these monsters

Why’s it so hard to breathe, somebody call me a doctor

I think I’m goin' fuckin' bonkers, yeah

Hook:

I can’t ahead of myself (myself)

I should try and better myself (myself)

But I’m drowning in the deep end

And it feels like no one sees it

Someone please give me a reason I should stay

I can’t ahead of myself (myself)

I should try and better myself (myself)

But I’m drowning in the deep end

And it feels like no one sees it

Someone please give me a reason I should stay

Savannah Dexter verse:

I can’t ahead of myself (myself)

I should try and better myself (myself)

But I’m drowning in the deep end

And it feels like no one sees it

Someone please give me a reason I should stay

I can’t ahead of myself (myself)

I should try and better myself (myself)

But I’m drowning in the deep end

And it feels like no one sees it

Someone please give me a reason I should stay

Rittz:

Look, I thought I quit doin' dope for good

Been smokin' cones of wood cause I (?)

I’m really wishin' I was drunk

I’ve become accustomed to the sober life

Overnight, took a year and nine months

(?) like it don’t mean shit

Every time the phone ring get told to shut the fuck up

And cussed by the one I love but she don’t want no contact

The sheriff gonna come and lock me up for just that

Just ask (???) he’s always on a mission trynna get me took off pills

He don’t wanna write and script and get in trouble

When it’s obvious there’s something that I’m hooked on still

I told him «Look Doc, look I’m chill

Drunk a half a bottle earlier and I don’t even look off keel.»

I just stood on till so much Xanex in my body like I’m runnin' on a football

field

I just wanna better myself

Mama said I know you got your life temporarily taken away

But livin' here is better than jail

Then the minute she said it I felt like killin' myself

I don’t look in no mirror, I don’t step on no scale

I’m so god damn fat, god damn Johnny

Ain’t no god damn money

Every god damn body, what you found that funny

Your heaven’s my HELL

I can’t ahead of myself (myself)

I should try and better myself (myself)

But I’m drowning in the deep end

And it feels like no one sees it

Someone please give me a reason I should stay

I can’t ahead of myself (myself)

I should try and better myself (myself)

But I’m drowning in the deep end

And it feels like no one sees it

Someone please give me a reason I should stay
