Solo Ab-Soul

[Intro]
Better off alone
Better off alone
It's real natural, supernatural if you may
Nobody to hold
Better off alone

[Verse 1]
Time is of the essence, that's how the saying goes
Can't stop for nothing, I gotta go
Gotta kick that shit and reach my goal
Sometimes your foes is friends, sometimes your friends is foes
I don't know who I trust, I don't know who I know
I don't know who to hug, I don't know who to choke
Cause niggas be funny style and I am not a joke
I don't fuck around like sex on a merry-go
No, I bet my soul like a 40 calico
Aimin' at your skull-and-bones tell the reaper hello
Nice to meet ya, but I ain't no killer
I stay low like Shawty, far away from you niggas
Cause see

[Hook]
They can't hate what they don't know
And they can't take what you don't show
I be better off alone
Say I be better off alone
Cause when I'm by myself I surprise myself
I could get where I'm goin', I could drive myself
With nobody to hold
Say I be better off alone
