lyrics

Verse 1:


Ain’t think I could do it, not conducive to the music
Now congruent, fluid, got your girl in the mood with
tunes that I’m producing, and the roof is Bradley Coopin
Limitless, even with a Hangover, I’m killin it
And my notebook is my silver lining
Up all night always working on assignments,
Your girl up all night tryna discern what my sign is
I’m up all night, now these labels wanna sign me
Ah,
I don’t sign near the dot
Do it myself, y’all sit kindly and watch
My crew is my help, you can find me at the top
with the roots where I dwell, in my garden of thoughts
And I’m pissing off these people, cuz they doubted from the jump, now
saying their my biggest fans, bought tickets to the front, how
I went from being hated, underrated to just loved, how
Guess they know i do it big sun up and sun down

Chorus:

Cause I'm better than you ever thought
Yeah, you know that's my repertoire
Cause I'm better than you ever thought
Yeah, you know that's my repertoire
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody here, and everybody bout' it

Verse 2:

I know I’m talking like I got it all,
Pop bottles like Tylenol
Contemplate suicide, park in suicidal doors
Rocking that suit and tie, copped from new designer stores
I’m not talking sports when I say your girl tryna score
But I admit that I embellish,
Admit that I am selfish
Burried beneath this thick skin
Skin that I’ve developed
A need to get this green then win
like a Celtic
Begin to create distance
From which i have seldom
Pulled my self apart,
This dog got a lot of fight
don’t often bark
You got your own dreams, dreams
But don’t got the balls
To do what I do, day in and day out
Shit, i’m off the charts
And even the people close to me
Thought devotion would slowly cease,
Now I’m catching private flight over seas, just blowing trees,
You c-c-cold you freeze when you go and see
millions of people came to see me me me me and only me

Chorus:

Cause I'm better than you ever thought
Yeah, you know that's my repertoire
Cause I'm better than you ever thought
Yeah, you know that's my repertoire
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody here, and everybody bout' it

Verse 3:

Arrogant, ignant, place labels on my image
Say that I’m a gimmick,
I waited and wasn’t timid
And for instance
Even my best friends
laughed Once I spoke I’mspittin
You thought that woulda broke my heart
and crashed my whole condition, but it didn’t
I wasn’t worried, ain’t discouraged
Always Knew I’d be on top of this world,
rugs are persian
laying under the same girls that wouldn’t want to touch the surface
Now she asking me polite to rub my back, love me perfect
Uh,
I see the whole thing as a giant picture
with possibilities for more paint, I put in the time ridiculous
You could say I hopped that soul train
Now I got that sickness, cause always kept it real,
Cause there ain’t no time for fiction
Remember sitting in math class
just tryna drop a dope line
Going off on tangents,
still muthafuck a cosine
That little rap bandit
Bound to make classics
Perhaps it's time I go nuts
Hands on both mine

Chorus:

Cause I'm better than you ever thought
Yeah, you know that's my repertoire
Cause I'm better than you ever thought
Yeah, you know that's my repertoire
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody hated, everybody doubted
Na na na
Everybody here, and everybody bout' it
