[Intro]
Run it back now
Run it back now
[Drum fill]
[Verse 1]
Used to sleep on the floor
Count cracks in the wall
Big dreams in my chest
But I kept getting small
You talked like I’d fold
Like I’d never move
Now my name on the door
And I came with proof
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at me now
Look at me now
Same hands, new scars
Same heart, louder sound
You said I was lucky
I say I was bruised
Every old no
Built the man I use
[Chorus]
Run it back now
Run it back now
Used to be less
Now I stand proud
Run it back now
Run it back now
You said I’d break
I’m the man now (the man now)
[Verse 2]
Back then it was smoke
In a cheap motel mirror
Cheap words in my head
Made the whole world smaller
You kept score with a grin
Like you knew the end
Now I walk in the room
And the room bends
[Pre-Chorus]
Look at me now
Look at me now
Same hands, new scars
Same heart, louder sound
You said I was lucky
I say I was bruised
Every old no
Built the man I use
[Chorus]
Run it back now
Run it back now
Used to be less
Now I stand proud
Run it back now
Run it back now
You said I’d break
I’m the man now (the man now)
[Bridge]
Toxic was the air
Toxic was the talk
Toxic was your smile
When you wanted me to stop
Now I don’t flinch
When the cold comes through
I made a life from the wreck
And I made it without you
[Drum Solo]
[Final Chorus]
Run it back now
Run it back now
Used to be less
Now I stand proud
Run it back now
Run it back now
You said I’d break
I’m the man now (the man now)
Run it back now
Run it back now
Used to be less
Now I stand proud
Run it back now
Run it back now
I’m the man now
Yeah, I’m the man now
