Yeah(2x)
Sometimes you gotta go back
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah
They had asked me King where you been?
Hook:
I had to leave now I'm back again
Take me back to where I first began
I need the key you got the plan
Now I'm taking off headed for a distant land
(Leggo leggo leggo)
Verse:
I want revenge in the worst way
Without pain wouldn't be here in the first place
If struggling brings steadfastness change the way that you see pain
A lot of times we miss the bigger picture all we see is gutters in these frames, if I gave a dime would that bring change?
Low brought me low, down this road I don't know
They put me in the dirt didn't know they sowed don't be surprised when I grow
Progress is like a protest boy you know change comes slow
But when they see what he got for me they gon know
Growing as a boy I was treated like a toy when you was in the mood you'd play with me, when you done return me to the store
That hurt me to the core you had your time but I promise no more
God gave me a voice, it's one you can't ignore
Hook
Verse 2:
I ain't tryna live in the past
But to move forward I gotta go back
Thought I had it mapped out I was like atlas (at last)
He put his hands on my glove world started spinning real fast
With no direction, now I'm feeling lost and hectic before the plan touched down it was intercepted now my whole world in the air feeling like the jetsons
That rough pain and aches, sometimes that's what it takes
It's hard to eat when you got the wrong plate
You know the Lord likes to do it backwards he gives you tips while he makes you wait
Don't despise them small beginnings or them big mistakes cause they make you great get started now it's never too late
People gonna try and stop your shine they can throw shade your lights inside
I don't care where you been I don't care who you know keep on going you gon get it this time
You got pain you got scars uncover em let em breathe
You're the living proof somebody needs to see
You could be the one to set em free
Hook
Outro:
Excuse me but I ain't from round here
I mean yeah I am it's been awhile since I been round here
Let it in the rear view yeah but now I'm looking back yeah
Once I'm gone I ain't coming back I ain't coming back I promise yeah
(I had to leave I had to leave, I had to go, I had to go)
