    Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14

    This song reminds me of my husband and me. In 2019 we lost some friends we thought would never leave our lives. We drew closer to God and each other in this time. Ever since we’ve been stronger together than ever. Through it all we’re better than we better used to be.

    What I get from this video is that it's about the car in a way. It went through 3 different owners with lives of there own. Then of course you got brotherly love, puppy love/budding love, then the love/trials of marriage. Each of them went though struggle but "are better than they used to be." The song is great but I'm captivated by the video and the visuals that the song enhances. The video tells a story here and that's what the director was hoping someone if not all would see. Then the ending with Matt, his wife and Olive his daughter. He had another daughter in 2020 too. Cool video and song.

    [Chorus]
    We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time
    Talkin' 'bout high hopes and daydreams
    Never thought love, never thought life
    Could take us far beyond what we believed
    As long as I got your love next to me
    I'm better than I used to be
    [Verse 1]
    I been chasin' this dream
    I'm so glad you understand
    Climbing up a mountain, would it leave you hardly standing
    Things don't go just the way you planned it
    But I never thought we'd have, so much to take for granted
    [Pre-Chorus]
    You never know what you got till it's gone
    Guess I never know cause I know you're my only one
    [Chorus]
    We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time
    Talkin' 'bout high hopes and day dreams
    Never thought love, never thought life
    Could take us far beyond what we believed
    As long as I got your love next to me
    I'm better than I used to be
    Better than I used to be
    [Verse 2]
    It's been a long day alone
    And I can hardly stand it
    My plane leaves tomorrow
    But my heart has already landed
    Things didn't go, just the way I planned it
    But I never thought we'd have, so much to take for granted
    [Pre-Chorus]
    You never know what you got till it's gone
    Guess I never know cause I know you're my only one
    [Chorus]
    We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time
    Talkin' 'bout high hopes and day dreams
    Never thought love, never thought life
    Could take us far beyond what we believed
    As long as I got your love next to me
    I'm better than I used to be
    Better than I used to be
    Better than I used to be
    Better than I used to be
    [Chorus]
    We used to be kids in the backseat wastin' time
    Talkin' 'bout high hopes and day dreams
    Never thought love, never thought life
    Could take us far beyond what we believed
    As long as I got your love next to me
    I'm better than I used to be

    It's December 2018 and this video only has 621,033 views & 164 comments & 92K subscribers for the channel. If you see this comment in future, I know the numbers will be in millions. But true fans are those that love the artist before he goes mainstream. His voice is like a miracle! The new Coldplay for sure.

    Avid Matt Kearney follower. Amazing show when my wife and I saw you at St. Andrews Hall in Detroit (so glad to know of you there when you were coming up) Saw you again at DTE when you were touring for the christian rock band to raise money. Played "Ships in the night" at my wife and my wedding. Still love the sound and am looking forward to see you play soon. Planning to dance with my wife to this song "Better than I used to be" in front of our kids (2yr and 4yr) at dinner tomorrow night just to show them how great love can be in the presence of great music. Keep it coming...you are inspirational on multiple levels!!!!

Just Kids and Young Love where my two favorite albums but so far the first couple songs that he's released on this upcoming album are amazing. Face To Face is my favorite but this is a good song. Love the beat the lyrics and the synth sounds.
