Wrekonize - Better Things lyrics

[Verse 1] Ok year 2002 18 wondering what the f** I'm gon' do Witty Pretty potent with the modern machinations An I ain't really getting help with college applications sh** I like to rhyme and I won a battle or two Down at the PAC with the crew the kid from broward can duel Yeah he got a few filler lines By now that flip it up thing he's probably used like a million times But he's got punches and energy to swing through the enemy a**umptions sh** Now he's going national Times Square face off Beat the competition for the cage match pay off 25k sh** I'm still a teenager And everything around now starts to seem major Work on your album young Wrek Shelved before I wrapped what the f** could I expect I took it with a smile I'll be in the waiting room Cause I'm waiting for the luck though to go for the gusto Sharpening my tools in a pool full of pride Where you pull or you die cause it's true suicide When you beat yourself up to be polite, right Trying to get up in the bright lights like Trying to find a spot on a throne where there's seven kings Sometimes it's kinda hard trying to find the better things [Hook] We get up every day for the chase Wait lemme see what's at stake (What's at stake) Make dollars just to live, make dollars out of habit It's all subconscious we all stack addicts We get up every day for the chase Wait lemme see what's at stake (What's at stake) They say money isn't everything But I'm sure the more you have makes for some better things Better things will come along Better things will come [Verse 2] Running in place with bad habits Back before the cynics were reading into your status Update, I'm just here feeling like a savage Eating all this madness in a marriage for the maggots Remember back when we used to spit in any circle any parking lot we backed in Them was Illiterat daze with our riddle rap ways G and H taught me how to sit and chisel stack phrase I dreamt about syllables and multis not residuals and trophies And here I am doing what I said I'd probably never do Feeling weathered can be terrible I know the paper can deface ya if ya take it as your savior See this is written in its nature But I'mma take ya to a place where you only hear the heavens sing Sometimes it's kinda hard trying to find the better things [Hook]
