"Better With Time" lyrics
Back when my parents were fightin' nightly, had my ear to the floor
My heartbeat turned to marquee, they cheer and they roar
Revered like Logan Airport for career and awards
They'll play it even louder when I appear as a corpse
I've been swingin' for the fence, I'm never trying to bunt
But I put it on the line, go time, my time of the month
I gotta keep the heat on, gotta provide for my son
Spit fire like I hit the wrong side of the blunt (Peter)
It was a dirty trick, they said it trickled down
But I went Maine out the gate, I went triple crown
So I became a prophet everywhere, go pick a town
You could watch me build this dreamcatcher if you stick around
I got my dame on
I trailblaze my path through here and put my cape on
Archenemy in the bathroom mirror, but my time
I'm aimin' for that Leonardo ceilin' design
My height, Royce da 5'8", but I'm still in my prime
Premierin' album number nine 'cause I always gotta shine
Outcome doin' fine, income every rhyme
When they mention Maine, I'm who they think of in their mind
And I'm
And I'm only gettin' better with time
It's only gettin' better with time
Like the finest of wine
I just get better with time, oh, yeah
Look, I record, and then it's alive, word to Igor
I went out on a limb before my tree fort
The whole town flipped when they found out next door who I speak for
For my hold down shift and press four on the keyboards
It's F4, up out the seafloor, my own islands
I was workin' doubles usin' singular wireless
I got a warm reception in my section, I dialed in
I should script on papyrus how vintage my style is
I was rhymin' 'til the rooster in these fools' faces
Gettin' richer, movin' chickens in these jewel cases
Get the picture, new description, I'm in new places
Brew elixirs, spit the scripture
Used to ask my little sister for cheese when nobody heard of me
Then my three blind mice got LASIK surgery
My cheddar better, then I replaced it with urgency
Spotify stream from Drake's city to Germany
Basically, I'm Hercules, and only growin' stronger
The lineup at my merch table only growin' longer
My childhood was dark so I could only grow to monster
New Hampshire capital is my career 'cause I conquered
And I'm only gettin' better with time
It's only gettin' better with time
Like the finest of wine
I just get better with time, oh, yeah
And I'm only gettin' better with time
Better with time
Oh, yeah
My heartbeat turned to marquee, they cheer and they roar
Revered like Logan Airport for career and awards
They'll play it even louder when I appear as a corpse
I've been swingin' for the fence, I'm never trying to bunt
But I put it on the line, go time, my time of the month
I gotta keep the heat on, gotta provide for my son
Spit fire like I hit the wrong side of the blunt (Peter)
It was a dirty trick, they said it trickled down
But I went Maine out the gate, I went triple crown
So I became a prophet everywhere, go pick a town
You could watch me build this dreamcatcher if you stick around
I got my dame on
I trailblaze my path through here and put my cape on
Archenemy in the bathroom mirror, but my time
I'm aimin' for that Leonardo ceilin' design
My height, Royce da 5'8", but I'm still in my prime
Premierin' album number nine 'cause I always gotta shine
Outcome doin' fine, income every rhyme
When they mention Maine, I'm who they think of in their mind
And I'm
And I'm only gettin' better with time
It's only gettin' better with time
Like the finest of wine
