Lyrics
[Intro]
[reversed vocal effects swell like time folding, heavy 808s pulse backward]
The road's runnin' backward... and I'm losin' control.
[Verse 1]
Cruisin' with the windows cracked but the wind's pushin' me back in time,
Old mixtapes rewindin', every lyric spittin' back my crimes.
That boy from the block showin' up in the rearview mirror's glow,
Still hungry, still hurtin', still don't know what he don't know.
Future I was manifestin' turnin' to vapor in the lane,
Every promise I made to myself now dancin' in the rain.
[Pre-Chorus]
Time's playin' tricks, hittin' buttons I can't see,
Every step I took forward now reversin' back to me.
[Chorus]
Movin' in reverse, life movin' in reverse,
Memories like headlights, blindin' me with the worst.
Old me takin' the wheel, new me fadin' in the dust,
Future I was buildin' now it's crumble in the rust.
(Yeah... movin' in reverse...)
[Verse 2]
Tried to hit the gas, but the past got the pedal floored,
Old habits creepin' back like they never left the door.
Texts from forgotten numbers lightin' up my phone at night,
Voices from the versions I buried, callin' me back to the fight.
The man I was becomin' slippin' through my fingers like sand,
Future slidin' in the rearview, slippin' right out of my hands.
[Bridge]
I yell at the reflection "You don't belong in this frame!"
But he laughs through the static, whisperin' my old name.
Maybe the reverse is teachin' what I refused to learn,
But tonight it feels like the whole world is takin' a turn.
[Final Chorus]
Movin' in reverse... still movin' in reverse,
But in the rewind I see the fire I was meant to nurse.
Old me in the mirror, but the new me's holdin' on,
Future might be fadin', but I'm findin' where I belong.
(Oh... movin' in reverse...)
[Outro]
[reversed vocal fades, 808s slow to a stop]
Rewind...
Stop.
The road...
It ends where it began.
