[Lyrics]
[Intro (spoken, Fontaines style)]
I’ve been here before…
Or maybe I just keep ending up
in the same place.
[Verse 1 (talk-sung → rhythmic)]
Late nights, same thoughts, same route,
Same voice in my head tryna phase me out.
Everybody moving like they figured it out…
I just move quiet, I don’t say it out loud.
I’ve been building something they don’t see yet,
Planting seeds, yeah, I’m still in the reset.
They want fast, I don’t move like that…
I’d rather lose slow than win like that.
[Pre-Chorus (Harry Styles vibe)]
Maybe I’m out of place…
Maybe I’m wide awake…
While everybody else just fades…
[Chorus (big, melodic, replayable)]
Run it back, run it back, I ain’t done yet
Every loss turned a win, I don’t forget
All the nights I was stuck in my head…
Now I’m standing instead.
Run it back, run it back, let it replay
Same road but I’m walking a new way
If I fall, I’ll be back again…
Yeah, I always ascend.
[Verse 2 (rap pocket, 4rif vibe)]
I don’t talk much, I just move when it’s time,
They want attention, I’m improving my mind.
Same old game but I’m changing the play…
Different route, I don’t stay in the lane.
They say I’m different, yeah I know that,
I don’t need crowns, I outgrow that.
If I disappear, I come back stronger…
They fade out, I last longer.
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I’m built this way…
Maybe I had to break…
Just to become what I make…
[Chorus]
Run it back, run it back, I ain’t done yet
Every loss turned a win, I don’t forget
All the nights I was stuck in my head…
Now I’m standing instead.
Run it back, run it back, let it replay
Same road but I’m walking a new way
If I fall, I’ll be back again…
Yeah, I always ascend.
[Bridge (Djo dreamy + distorted vocal)]
It feels like I’ve been here before…
Same room, same door…
But I’m not the same anymore.
[Final Chorus (biggest, layered)]
Run it back, run it back, I ain’t done yet
Every scar got a story attached
All the nights I was losing my breath…
Now I’m passing the test.
Run it back, run it back, let it replay
Same life but I’m seeing a new day
If I fall, I’ll be back again…
I don’t break — I bend.
[Outro (spoken, soft)]
Same place…
Different me.
