Will Armstrong - Dontlookback Lyrics

I always been afraid to drown
So, i guess I got too close to the sun
Always wanted to make my dad proud
But, I been caged so long and I'm done
And I'm dumb, I lost patience
Lost time spent in the mirror cause I just hate the way my face is
This is real shit but the wax is breaking
I saw the sun, but now
My skies gray vision clouded
Mind state weighed down from everybody that doubted
Head sunk I'm done shouting, now nobody around
Honestly I just hate how my voice sound
And, I hate my fucking smile
I fell for this girl but we ain't talked in a while
I memorized the tile on my bathroom floor
Thinking if my friends like me or if they just bored
Write my wrongs I don't progress so I ain't press record
I keep my shields up cause I ain't used a sword before
I wanted hits but now I'm pulling my punches
Life was better when mom packed lunches
I don't smoke I'm just struggling for air
And I've spent my whole life embarrassed by stares
I'm never looking back now
And I'm running, cause
I'm running out of time
Came up from dirt one foot is still in the grave
Hands on the gate, I'm stuck
Watching myself sink in the quick sand of my ways
Lost pain, heard so many hits that I forgot how to feel
See we been living so long we just forget what is real
It's the simplest shit to say that's the hardest
I am not a rapper and I am not an artist
I'm a nomad who turned his back on all this
Don't need fans to prevail
If i never look back I am never going to fail
Im running, I'm never looking back

I always been afraid to drown
So, i guess I got too close to the sun
Always wanted to make my dad proud
But, I been caged so long and I'm done
And I'm dumb, I lost patience
Lost time spent in the mirror cause I just hate the way my face is
This is real shit but the wax is breaking
I saw the sun, but now
My skies gray vision clouded
Mind state weighed down from everybody that doubted
Head sunk I'm done shouting, now nobody around
Honestly I just hate how my voice sound
And, I hate my fucking smile
I fell for this girl but we ain't talked in a while
I memorized the tile on my bathroom floor
Thinking if my friends like me or if they just bored
Write my wrongs I don't progress so I ain't press record
I keep my shields up cause I ain't used a sword before
I wanted hits but now I'm pulling my punches
Life was better when mom packed lunches
I don't smoke I'm just struggling for air
And I've spent my whole life embarrassed by stares
I'm never looking back now
And I'm running, cause
I'm running out of time
Came up from dirt one foot is still in the grave
Hands on the gate, I'm stuck
Watching myself sink in the quick sand of my ways
Lost pain, heard so many hits that I forgot how to feel
See we been living so long we just forget what is real
It's the simplest shit to say that's the hardest
I am not a rapper and I am not an artist
I'm a nomad who turned his back on all this
Don't need fans to prevail
If i never look back I am never going to fail
Im running, I'm never looking back
