Lyrics " A Better Place "

Original text with translation

A Better Place

Rav

Nah-nah, nah-nah

Nah-nah, nah-nah

Still ain’t sleeping at night

What am I 'gon do?

I bet that if I could sleep though I’d probably dream about you

And that’s why I don’t want to sleep, I’ve no mind left to lose

These lyrics getting so hard to read, my artistry is my noose

But I’m a win it all, independent of all these cynical critics

If you ribbit, leap or fall

Sick of all self-ridicule

Got to get it all together even though we’re not together anymore

I’ve matured now, got the cure now

Burned down every bridge, guess this, it turns out

That she’s burnt hers down, long before I figured ours wouldn’t work out

So I’m sitting in this herb cloud

At Earth turns round, my mind spins

Where the fuck have I been?

Been lost on an island of self-pity, it’s quite grim

Soul searching but no merchant

Offers happiness or purpose

It’s all worthless

I’m so certain that I can cope with this hurt

And I could always Kurt Cobain if nothing else works

I’m just saying though

I just want to chill at a steady pace

Feel like I could kill just to get some space

So, I’m 'gon build me a better place

Yeah, I’m 'gon build me a better place

Building and building

I’ll be feeling much better

I just want something real

Something realer than ever

Yeah-yeah

Yeah-yeah

So, I’m 'gon build me a better place

Yup, I’m 'gon build me a better place

Is this life even worth it?

All these strives that I’m working

Every night 'til it’s perfect

It’s not right less I’m certain

But 'til life close the curtains

I’ve got to cope with this hurting

So I’ma smoke like a furnace

Get wasted on purpose

Cuff your girl if she flirting

Cause I can cut like a surgeon

Cuff your girl if she thirsting

Cause I can fuck 'til she squirting

Back to work, tuck my shirt in

My emotions reverting

To a state of recursion

In a world of hate and disturbance

When before I was bursting

With life, was it worth it?

Isn’t it quite concerning that every night I’m conversing

With myself?

Face to the sea and the sea to the stars

Reach for the stars, my brother

No need for the raws or the gars

Just leap with the wings on your feet

Sing to the beat

Sling cocaine for your peeps be meek cause it’s good for the heart

They got fiends in the streets in they car

Fiend for the peace cause its hard to remember who you are when you’re gone

Hollywood, Hollywood

And my ship don’t sink tonight

Can I follow my dreams

And hollow the swallow of strings to build tomorrow’s regime?

The sorrow of living between the hype and flashing lights

Passing before my sight I’ll never know everlasting life

Life

Like

Nah-nah, nah-nah

Nah-nah, nah-nah
