old me

shout out to the old me

and everything he showed me

glad you didn't listen when the world was tryna slow me

no one could control me

left my lovers lonely

had to fuck it up before i really got to know me

never a night alone

anywhere you wanna go

woke up in the morning

wearing someone else's clothes

pictures in my phone

with people i don't know

woke up in the morning

how the hell'd i make it home?

and they wondered how long i could keep it up

but i wondered if i ever

if i'd ever get enough

and i did some shit i never should've done

i would do it over now

i'd do it over

shout out to the old me

and everything you showed me

glad you didn't listen when the world was tryna slow me

no one could control me

left my lovers lonely

had to fuck it up before i really got to know me

all of the mistakes i made

i made

i made

i made

whatever the price i paid

i paid

i paid

i paid

shout out to the old me

and everything you showed me

had to fuck it up before i let you get to know me

another round

here we go

going in

blow for blow

look into the mirror

take the punches that i throw

i'm constantly reminded

of all the compromises

by the people from my past who have a hard time letting go

and they wondered how long i could keep it up

but i wondered if i ever

if i'd ever get enough

and i did some shit i never shoulda done

i would do it over now

i'd do it over

devil at my door

got me knocking

knocking

knocking

on the other side

ashes on the floor

but i'm walking

walking

walking

out of here alive
