Better Yet

You was in the trenches in the midst of winter You're gonna treat another bottle like a father figure You was looking for advice, but found another vice Yea, you always told me you'd be something bigger You was always on the road, yea, if I remember Used to keep me on my toes, yea, if I remember Used to feel I was in the know, was an inside joke Now I just feel like a poser when I remember I was picking up the scraps, my momma told me not to litter Yea, I thought about turning back but she didn't raise a quitter Thought the problems would unpack if I just got a little richer Then the chips started to stack, but something was still missing They were trying to rock the boat, while she was crying me a river All those hand-me-down clothes, yea they never seem to fit us I was working all alone, before anyone would listen Ooh I don't mean to boast, but I really feel I'm winning Did it get better yet? Wish I could tell them yes Does it get better when you know? Did it get better yet? Wish I could tell them yes Does it get better when you know? You was in the trenches in the midst of winter You're gonna treat another bottle like a father figure You was looking for advice, but found another vice Yea, you always told me you'd be something bigger You was always on the road, yea, if I remember Used to keep me on my toes, yea, if I remember Used to feel I was in the know, was an inside joke Now I just feel like a poser when I remember The things that you hated; you needed the most So, I told you to go, but then prayed that you won't Turn my problems to profit, I'm facing my ghosts It's like all of my trauma was plated in gold You said, careful making promises with new friends Stringing you along to cut a loose end You ain't been the same, you ain't been you since Is that your two cents? Did it get better yet? Wish I could tell them yes Does it get better when you know? Did it get better yet? Wish I could tell them yes Does it get better when you know?
