betterman

(album: a constant state of improvement - 2020)

36 hours and I'm back where I started
LA in the rear view
My heart is
Barely what it used to be
Barely what it used to be

Left a house in the oaks by the ocean
Back to Toronto
I'm hoping
I can find what's left of me
That city got the best of me

Sick and tired of living my life that way
Maybe I should get to church on Sunday
Call my mom, put a smile on her face
Tell her one day

I wanna be a better me, a better man
A better lover, better brother, better friend
Put myself back together again
Cause I still got a couple loose ends
And I got pretty lucky
Made a whole bunch of money
But I don't feel any better yet
So I'm tryna do the best I can
To be a better me
A better man

To be a better me
A better man
To be a better me
A better man

Moved into a bachelor apartment
Tryna keep my mind fed
But it's hard when
Everybody seems to be
Settling down with their families

Sick and tired of living my life that way
Maybe I should get to church on Sunday
Call my mom, put a smile on her face
Tell her one day

I wanna be a better me, a better man
A better lover, better brother, better friend
Put myself back together again
Cause I still got a couple loose ends
And I get pretty lucky
Made a whole bunch of money
But I don't feel any better yet
So I'm tryna do the best I can
To be a better me
A better man
To be a better me
A better man
To be a better me
A better man

36 hours and I'm back where I started
LA in the rear view
My heart is
Barely what it used to be
Barely what it used to be

I wanna be a better me, a better man
A better lover, better brother, better friend
Put myself back together again
Cause I still got a couple loose ends
And I get pretty lucky, made a whole bunch of money, but I don't feel any better yet
So I'm tryna do the best I can
To be a better me
A better man

To be a better me
A better man
To be a better me
A better man
