(Verse 1):
I used to live in the future, but now I’m stuck in the past/
My memories are like movies and I keep on runnin’ ‘em back/ Repeatin’ scenes I’ve seen so many times, still stunned and aghast/ At how my life could be different if I weren’t such an ass/ So many verses I spat just so I could adjust my label/ Craved attention so badly, that I could devour a plateful/ But I tried so hard to be seen, I forgot to set the right angle/ Then the camera rolled and I was told I acted disgraceful/ Damn, and I had homies who’d show me so much love/ But at the time it just never felt like it was enough/
Chasin’ validation from people who didn’t give a fuck/
About me, leavin the ones who really did behind in the dust/  ‘Cuz they’d always listen when I was bitchin’ about feelin’ voiceless/ But I’d ditch ‘em for toxic folks I knew I should be avoidin’/ Yet, I was so thirsty I was happy drinkin’ poison/ And all my friends warnin’ me were drowned in a sea of voices

(Hook):
Man I was so blind/
And I know I can’t just heal the scars I’ve tried/
I want to take it back and make it right/
All that I’ve avoided to be fine/
Sorry that I left you all behind/ 

(Verse 2):
I’m wakin’ up from dreams that feel realer than life/
In ‘em I fight with my demons, hear ‘em scream in the dead of night/
Now it’s got me facin’ all the darkest vignettes of my life/
So I gaze at a screen just to get a glimmer of light/
Hittin’ me right where it hurts and fuck, it might be absurd/
But I’m saying sorry to people I haven’t spoken a word/
To in years now, so I can make it clear how/
Much I’ve really changed and I can’t be more sincere ‘bout/
Wantin’ to make up for the errors of the ways/ Every year it gets more difficult to bear all this weight/ But I don’t even know if I believe all that I say/ When I’m repeatin’ the same mistakes I’d make back in the day/ Kickin’ myself until I re-open up my old scars/ I’d go far, but in my wake I’d leave behind some broke hearts/ Yeah, and now that everything I’d worry bout’s irrelevant/ All that I think about is how I wish I could’ve been a better friend/
