better - josiah williams lyrics
[verse 1]
you call me intelligent
when it’s relevant
you say i can do more, and you phrase it with eloquence
why do i settle for being short of incredible?
i could use my whole heart and mind
and not a sectional
apparently, i’m a man of potential
could be higher
if god is my audience, then i’m preaching to the choir
’cause i could be
reaching out to those that feel like they weren’t chose
they fell and never arose
so they hurt, and it shows
why should i be selfish? when i could be selfless?
helping someone else could really tell me what the “self” is
got so much inside, i gotta let it out
i’m clearing all of these weeds
i’m tryna learn how to sprout
i am the only problem, i gotta learn how to see
showing you god’s love while showing what i can be
gave it all to the king, while the world wanna be a prince
and i haven’t felt the same ever since
(and christ said:)
[chorus]
i know what you want
you just wanna be
better
you can come to me
for whatever you need
forever
you know that i love you (x4)
[verse 2]
kinda hard when you’re living life with a mirror
that’s pointing at everything k!lling you in sight
reflecting all of these images
saying “go be a ruler.”
spending so much time winning, you fail at being a loser
can’t be a connoisseur cause you’re living in sin
wrapped around you like a waistband that holds you within
they told me ’bout god’s peace, that’s exactly what i needed
i’m a gl-ss half-empty, and god came to complete it
i’m not a shining example, but i live in his shine
i can tell you the direction without reading the sign
i’m working on getting memorized
all of these verses that i recognize, so everytime i say ’em
i get energized
i’d rather be redeemed instead of rotten
and i’d rather be forgiven than forgotten
tryna get that rebound, something like dennis rodman
but i’m living for chapter 3:23 in colossians
what?
[chorus]
i know what you want
you just wanna be
better
you can come to me
for whatever you need
forever
you know that i love you (x4)
[verse 3]
i don’t wanna think about the past
i’m just moving on
i’ve got a whole lot in my life that i’m improving on
i’ve got people sayin’ that they like the old me
that’s what they told me
but, i can say it now:
it was too hard to control me
i may not be perfect
but, i know i’m workin’
and i know that i’m confident even when i ain’t certain
cause i trust in a god that’s gon’ watch my back
and that’s psalm 55 for you to check that fact
[chorus] (x2)
i know what you want
you just wanna be
better
you can come to me
for whatever you need
forever
you know that i love you (x4)
