i been peeling off the layers I wore to survive,
i used to numb my pain just to feel alive.
now I see the truth in space I spare,
every step from my past got me breathing air.

i ain’t going back there, I done paid that fare,
left my guilt in the smoke, let the sky stay clear.
God walked me through the weight I bare,
now I move in peace, I belong right here.

i still hear the echo of who I was then,
i still fight the urge to make peace with sin.
but I learned that growth doesn't mean repair,
It’s release. and release means I don’t care.

i ain’t going back there, I done paid that fare,
left my guilt in the smoke, let the sky stay clear.
God walked me through the weight I bare,
now I move in peace, I belong right here.

Never Going Back [prod. farberbeats & Daniel Saint]

Lyrics: [ For the first time in long time, I loved my little life. For the first time, in forever, I was outgoing and I find that that’s much better than staying home and fearing the unknown. 
You looked cool, and I said it, then you taught me how to play pool, I can’t believe I used to stay inside. 
We looked at art, it wasn’t hard, to hold a conversation with you. 

And you’re such an artist, we talk like we’re too good for this. I can’t draw to save my life, but I can write maybe I can teach you some time 

And he barely knows me, I just want him so I won’t stay lonely. And before he leaves,  he’ll take the knife , cus he’d never be, in my little life

For the first time in a long time, I fell in love with my little life. 
For the first time in a long time, I made friends without really trying 

And you’re such an artist, we talk like we’re too good for this. I can’t draw to save my life, but I can write maybe you can teach me some time 

And you barely know me, want you to want me so I won’t stay lonely. And before you leave,  just take the knife , cus you’d never be, in my little life

And I’m so psychotic, you were kind so now I want it, you laughed at every joke I made, and before we spoke you knew my name

And I know I’m crazy, heart made of glass, but maybe, this is the one that’s for me, 
It never is so I’ll leave ]
