Better Off Songtext
von Kala

I′ve been on my own since 18
Tryna navigate this world I'm in

I never met your expectations
Who were you to tell me how to feel?
You told me, "Get an education"
You said that I′m a waste and that I'd fail
You never came to one of my shows
You told me that I'm wasting all my time
Now I see you textin′ my phone
On read for the rest of your damn life

Never had the family to give me what I needed
I′ve always been a little different, you just couldn't see it

I′ve been on my own since 18
Tryna navigate this world I'm in
So take me somewhere else, I hate this
I′m a renegade, you're full of shit
And I′m better off alone


I always tried to make you think that
I was really hearing what you said
Didn't you see my eyes glaze over
Every time you told me that my dreams were dead
I don't know where to go from here, but
I′m sick of taking all the worst of it
Talking to me like you got it all figured out
I′ve never met such a fucking hypocrite

I never had the family to give me what I needed
I've always been a little different, you just couldn′t see it

I've been on my own since 18
Tryna navigate this world I′m in
So take me somewhere else, I hate this
I'm a renegade, you′re full of shit
And I'm better off alone

I feel like I'm an alien crash-landed, and I can′t find my spaceship
′Cause every time I read the news, I wanna hide myself in my basement

I've been on my own since 18
Tryna navigate this world I′m in
(And I'm better off alone)
So take me somewhere else, I hate this
I′m a renegade, you're full of shit
And I′m better off alone


Don't want you callin' my phone
′Cause you never cared at all
You kicked me out of my home
I had nowhere to go
I was just a kid with hopes
But you couldn′t see that though
Now I'm doin′ fine without you 'cause I′m better off alone
