I Know Better - Maximillian Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was playing stupid, young, and naive
Just a kid who always followed the stream
Blaming 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

[Pre-Chorus]
Mistakes that we learned from
The choices that we made
I know that I hurt some
And I'm left to blame

[Chorus]
'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

[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
Mistakes that we learned from
The choices that we made
I know that I hurt some
And I'm left to blame

[Chorus]
'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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
'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
