[Verse 1: [?]]
Hey'o, it feels like yesterday
You and me hanging out smoking purple haze
Getting blazed on the rooftop and drinking case
Broke as now but we always had good taste
Always in sh*t cause we never had sh*t
We tried to hustle but we made a little bit
And our folks split us up when you had to go travel on your own
Now I'm here reminiscing this, cause I thought life was a game
Till I got that phone call and my life changed
She was like, yo this sh*t is messed up
Your cousins been shot, I can't take the pain
And I'm never gonna be the same again, hey
Cause I lost my homie and my best friend
And it cuts so deep every time I reminisce
My hand on my chest, you'll always be better with you
[Hook: Dwele]
I'll be better with you
Feels like one of those days
Where I can't (I can't,) be strong
Just tell me what to do
I'll be better with you
Feels like one of those days
Where I can't be strong
But your love will get me through
[Ad-Libs: Dwele]
[Verse 2: Dwele]
First class flights on the daily
Rocking mics round the world, yeah they name me
Star, guess what I'm saying mainly
I wish I'd spent more time with my baby
We were always apart
Video calls only took us so far
Always let them know
How much you love them before they get cold
Ooooo-ooooooh
I need you baby
But you're flying now
Flying now
[?] but I'd be better with you
[Verse 3: [?]]
My chest kinda heavy
So many words I wanna say to you lately
Been ten years since I haven't seen my family
My God, my sister don't recognise me when she see me
I live back home since she got a better place
It feels like I'm stuck running in the rat race
Don't know what to do cause I'm losing the plot
And sometimes I wonder if its worth it or not
I 'member when mum used to say
"Whatever happens it happens anyway
Just accept it and keep going with ya day"
Fair play, she raised true soldiers
So she know that I'ma be okay
Survival of the fittest
Never be defeated 'cause they told me I'm the illest
Yeah, I killed it
But I still wish you were here so you could see it
[Hook: Dwele]
I'll be better with you
Feels like one of those days
Where I can't (I can't,) be strong (be strong)
Just tell me what to do
I'll be better with you
Feels like one of those days
Where I can't be strong
But your love will get me through
