[Intro]
Yeah!
Turn the lights down, turn the bass up,
Everybody in the building, yeah, wake up!
Uh...
This one’s for anybody chasing something bigger.
Let’s go!
[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning with a fire in my chest,
Got a dream on my mind, gonna give it my best.
I’ve been walking through the storm, I’ve been testing my fate,
But I learned you can’t be scared when you’re knocking on the gate.
Had some days feeling low, had some nights feeling cold,
Had a pocket full of dreams and a heart full of gold.
People told me, “Slow down,” people told me, “You can’t,”
But I turned every “never” into one more “I can.”
I don’t need their permission, I don’t need their applause,
I’m just building my future while I learn from my flaws.
Every scar is a chapter, every loss is a page,
Every time that I struggled, I was building my rage.
Now the engine is running and the tires are hot,
I’m giving everything that I got.
If the road gets rough, I’ll adjust to the track,
Got my eyes on the future — I’m not looking back.
[Hook]
I’m not looking back, I’m moving ahead,
Got a thousand new ideas running wild in my head.
If I fall, I get up, if I lose, I attack,
Put my foot on the gas — I’m not looking back.
No, I’m not looking back, let the old days fade,
Every move that I make is a choice that I made.
Through the highs and the lows, through the good and the bad,
I’m taking what I learned and I’m making it last.
[Verse 2]
I came from the bottom, had to learn how to climb,
Had to turn my little moments into one big grind.
Everybody wants the crown, but they don’t want the weight,
Everybody loves success, but they hate the wait.
See, the pressure makes diamonds, the struggle makes steel,
You can’t fake determination, you can’t fake what you feel.
I’ve been knocked to the floor, I’ve been pushed to the side,
But I got back up stronger with my head held high.
Now I’m moving like lightning, no pause in my stride,
Got the beat in
