Prompt / Lyrics
(Verse 1) Remember when you laughed at every dream I had? Said I’d never make it, called my choices bad. You were the king of the hometown scene, Livin’ off stories from when you were seventeen. Now I’m out here rising, shining like the stage lights, You’re still holding court in the same streets every night. Funny how the tables flip so quick— Guess I’m the one who made it, you’re the one who didn’t. (Pre-Chorus) I’m busy leveling up, You’re busy living in the past. I’m running toward the future, You’re running out of gas. (Chorus) Ha-ha, look at me now— I’m following my dreams while you’re stuck in your hometown. I’m booking flights, you’re booking pity parties, I’m moving on, you’re texting kids like you’re still at the start, see? I rose up, you stayed down— Funny how success flips the crown. Ha-ha, look at me now— You’re still talking to high schoolers… Wow. (Verse 2) I’ve got new friends, new plans, new life to build, You’ve got old habits and an ego to fill. You DM teens like it’s still your prime, Guess you forgot the rest of us grew up on time. I’m out here grinding, chasing everything I want, You’re out here bragging ’bout a high school font. You said I’d fail—aww, that’s cute— You’re the only one who never rebooted. (Pre-Chorus) I’m making waves, You’re barely making noise. I’m writing chapters, You’re stuck in the same old void. (Chorus) Ha-ha, look at me now— I’m following my dreams while you’re stuck in your hometown. I’m growing up, you’re going backwards, I’m chasing stars, you’re chasing actors. I rose up, you stayed down— Funny how success flips the crown. Ha-ha, look at me now— Still talkin’ to high schoolers… Yikes. (Bridge – the KO punch) While you cling to glory days you never left, I built a life from nothing, yeah, call it theft— I stole my power back, You lost the script, I’m on the main stage now, You still can’t commit. (Chorus – final, louder, prouder) Ha-ha, look at me now— I’m following my dreams while you fade in the background. You can keep pretending you’re still eighteen, But I’m out here living what you called a dream. I rose up, you stayed down— Look who’s wearing the crown. Ha-ha, look at me now— You’re still talking to high schoolers… And I’m living life out loud. (Outro) Hope nostalgia keeps you warm… I’ll be busy moving on.
