be better - illmac lyrics

[intro: illmac]
uhuh
tired of, watching my heroes fall
yeah

[chorus: illmac]
don’t be like me, be better
i’m sick of watching all my heroes fall, mirror on the wall saying ‘do better’

[verse 1: illmac]
i got a message from a fan, he told me he going through it
lost his love and a loved one and said my music pulled him through it
told me lines from songs he love, what they meant to him, he still in school
raps and wanna be like me, whatever you do
don’t be like me, which is to say don’t put me on a pedestal
i’m watching heroes falling that i thought i’d never measure to
another fan told me he finally got his ged
i never did, we switch roles in turn he inspired me to
do better, fashion bummy had me acting funny
half the country’s in my passport stamp for rap and fans that love me
but i’m, still chasing that high i felt as a teen, buying a new washer and dryer for my dad’s house with battle money
might not mean much to you but if you only knew
them clean clothes felt like a mansion that had the ocean view
if only one outfit was clean, i might not go to school
wear it monday skip ‘til friday wear it and hope no one knew
ooh, some things are too real
i’m in my bed like dru hill, thinking you don’t speak how you feel then who will?
just tryna be better every day
so it’s not self*deprecating when i say
[chorus: illmac]
don’t be like me, be better
i’m sick of watching all my heroes fall, mirror on the wall saying ‘do better’
don’t be like me, you can be better
i’m sick of watching all my heroes fall, mirror on the wall saying ‘do better’

[bridge: illmac]
i can’t be your hero, i can’t even save myself
i can’t be your hero, i can’t even save myself

[verse 2: illmac]
yeah, i used to idolize rappers like superheroes since day one
i would, put my mask on and play them
pac was like clark kent, biggie was bruce wayne, we watched beef amongst a*1’s
the death of superman, i was way young, uh
but where i came from
being broke was a superpower, i put my cape on
watching my heroes fall
tired of, watching my heroes fall
now all i see’s their power weakening and ch*nks in their armor
either that or i’m even stronger
sh*t i guess i finally became one, i guess it’s on me to save ‘em
my bad, that’s the villain ego speaking, i can’t escape him
as gotham falls, designer wall just to hide my flaws
suit up like kung fu kenny, t’challa wakanda cause
double r, x the professor that got ‘em all, falling off
now he back on that kryptonite, it’s not his fault
‘cause all that pressure bust pipes, addicted by default
marshall locked in arkham asylum, outside it’s martial law
donald like dr. claw or thanos with the gauntlet on
kanye dropped the ball cosigning a monster at comic*con
watching my hero fall
tired of, watching my heroes fall
before the rise and fall, don’t idolize me, not at all
i ain’t sh*t, signing off, p.s
[chorus: illmac]
don’t be like me, be better
i’m sick of watching all my heroes fall, mirror on the wall saying ‘do better’
don’t be like me, you can be better
i’m sick of watching all my heroes fall, mirror on the wall saying ‘do better’

[verse 3: illmac]
wish i could put big l, in a lazarus pit
jacka’s handstyle in my black book brings me back to that trip
cried when bender died, alexander buchanan is missed
wish i could turn the tat on my skin back into him
cried when bender died, alexander buchanan is missed
wish i could turn this tat on my skin back into him
tired of watching all my heroes fall
watching all my heroes fall

[outro: illmac]
rest in peace to the fallen heroes
