I’m Better
Dark, seductive R&B-meets-club track with a fast, hypnotic beat around 120–125 BPM. Heavy, pulsing bassline with crisp hi-hats and tight kick-snare groove. Minimal but glossy synth stabs, atmospheric pads, and occasional vocal chops. Smooth, breathy female lead vocals with a confident, teasing tone; layered harmonies on the hook. Lyrics are flirtatious and commanding, blending sensuality with a dancefloor energy. Arrangement builds subtly with each section, keeping tension and movement for the club.

Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Phone's glowing on my nightstand, quarter past two
Same old "you up?" text, baby, what's new?
You must be hurting, must be feeling the sting
Of a quiet bedroom and the silence it brings
I see you out sometimes and I just have to smile
At the boy I wasted so much of my time on for a while
It's kinda pathetic, looking back on us now
Used to think I'd die without you, but I forgot how
(Pre-Chorus)
To breathe without the weight of all your stupid needs
To plant my own garden and pull out all the weeds
You swore I'd be nothing, that I'd crumble and cry
Funny you're the one who can't say goodbye
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm better, sleeping soundly in my bed
I'm better, with all the crazy shit you said
Out of my life now, my world is so much wider
My laugh is so much louder, my future's so much brighter
Yeah, I'm better, better, better now you're gone
Should probably thank you for doing me wrong
(Verse 2)
Your new girl, she's cute, I guess she'll do
A sweet little copy of me from a year or two ago
She can have my old habits and my old sad songs
'Cause where I'm going is where she'll never belong
That dark-haired girl you loved, well she disappeared
Like a raven in the night, baby, everything is cleared
I took flight from the bullshit, the drama, and the pain
The only time I think of you is when I hear the rain
(Pre-Chorus)
I can breathe without the weight of all your stupid needs
I can plant my own garden and pull out all the weeds
You swore I'd be nothing, that I'd crumble and cry
Funny you're the one who can't say goodbye
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm better, sleeping soundly in my bed
I'm better, with all the crazy shit you said
Out of my life now, my world is so much wider
My laugh is so much louder, my future's so much brighter
Yeah, I'm better, better, better now you're gone
Should probably thank you for doing me wrong
(Bridge)
And don't think I don't hear the things you say
How you told your friends I was a psycho anyway
That I was just some jealous, possessive little cunt
'Cause I finally got the guts to tell you what I want
And what I want is you long gone from my view
So the best damn thing you ever did was breaking me in two
'Cause I put myself together, better than before
And that girl you knew, she don't live here anymore
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm better, sleeping soundly in my bed
I'm better, with all the crazy shit you said
Out of my life now, my world is so much wider
My laugh is so much louder, my future's so much brighter
Yeah, I'm better, better, better now you're gone
Should probably thank you for doing me wrong
