I Know Better

I was playing stupid, young, and naive

Just a kid who always followed the stream

Blamin' everybody else for my pain

Now I know that it sounds pretty strange

But hear me out, I didn't feel pretty good

Oh, I got so fed up, I misunderstood

What was really important, what I had to get sorted

How I was meant to grow up

Mistakes that we learned from

The choices that we made

I know that I hurt some

And I'm left to blame

'Cause I've played my games, I've sunk my ship

And there are still some voices whispering

My shadow's staying near, tryna get me down

But I know better, I know better now

I was locked up, shackled in chains

Heavy breathin' bringing smoke to my brain

Everybody tellin' me I'm insane

Now I know that it sounds pretty strange

Mistakes that we learned from

The choices that we made

I know that I hurt some

And I'm left to blame

'Cause I've played my games, I've sunk my ship

And there are still some voices whispering

My shadow's staying near, tryna get me down

But I know better, I know better now

Mistakes that we learned from

The choices that we made

I know that I hurt some

And I'm left to blame

But I know better now

'Cause I've played my games, I've sunk my ship

And there are still some voices whispering

My shadow's staying near, tryna get me down

But I know better, I know better now

'Cause I've played my games, I've sunk my ship

And there are still some voices whispering

My shadow's staying near, tryna get me down

But I know better, I know better now
