kelela - better (unplugged) lyrics

[spoken]
y’all better get your tissues

[verse 1]
we got back, it’s not the same
and i’m afraid to say it out loud
then you replied, “could i have done something?”
you’ve got some nerve asking me now
though i’m in love with it, i will amputate
i care enough not to keep you around
is it rough for you? i can’t bear the way
you look at me when i let you down

[pre+chorus]
tell me, is this how it goes when you let someone know
that they gave it their best but you still gotta roll?
remember, i told you we would be closer
we took some time further apart

[chorus]
didn’t it make you better?
aren’t we better now?
i know it made me better
aren’t we better now?

[verse 2]
been six months, it’s my birthday
and it feels good to hear your voice
we took a ride through the hills
replayed all of the reasons i made that choice
we go around the bend only to reveal
what we couldn’t see before
we’re better off as friends, baby, you can’t stay
we both know i’m not there anymore
[pre+chorus]
tell me, is this how it goes when you let someone know
that it’s all for the best? we cut and we grow
remember, i told you we would be closer
we took some time further apart

[chorus]
aren’t we better now?
and i know it made me better
aren’t we better now

[bridge]
that we been around the block once or twice?
breaking down in the middle of the night, no ride (no ride)
and then somehow we fixed it (somehow we fixed it)
glad we’re talking when we used to fight
still bail me out when my money ain’t right, oh no (oh no)
and now we’re riding through the— (oh no)
all the things i had to keep at bay
stopped you but i could’ve waited all day, all night
it could’ve been forever
told you that i needed time to hate
there’s a lot to think about while you wait, wait, wait, wait, wait
tell me one more time

[interlude]
didn’t i make you better?
oh, didn’t i make you better?
oh, didn’t i make you better? (didn’t i? didn’t i?)
didn’t i make you better? (y’all better sing)
makes me wanna say
[chorus]
doo+doo, doo+doo, doo+doo, doo+doo, doo+doo, ooh
didn’t it make you better? (doo+doo)
aren’t we better now? (doo+doo)
and i know it made me better (doo+doo)
aren’t we better now? mm

[outro]
no, no, no, no, no, no, no

[spoken]
thank you
um, that table over there, my dad is over there
and i will say that he planted a very deliberate seed, he planted the jazz seed, he knew what he was doing
um, i know my range of just the types of things that i can get on, the types of things that i can do with music
has so much to do with the seed that was planted, that just kinda didn’t follow any particular rule
um, and i’m so grateful for that, dad, thank you for that
thank you guys once more for coming out, it’s been such a pleasure
this is gonna be my last tune
