No Looking Back - Phora

Yeah

On a plane overlookin' the ocean

Lately, I’m just tryna live in the moment

Certain people I needed just couldn’t stick around

If they ain’t see the vision, I bet they feel it now

See, the difference with me is I ain’t afraid of believin'

Friends only come around when they know it’s convenient

But my circle gettin' smaller by the second

Funny how my biggest fear was not bein' accepted, but look

I gave my heart to a person who couldn’t love herself

I’m lost in somebody lookin' for someone else

Put my trust in a person who ain’t believe in me, eventually it just made it

harder for me to trust myself

I leave the past in the past, no looking back now

But I ain’t complacent with where I’m at now

So in hopes that somebody else could relate to me, I take another sip of this

Henney and write these raps down

Anxiety killin' me, I’ve been losin' touch

Losin' my patience, I don’t know who to trust

Plus, me and my family ain’t as close now

I take a sip of this Henney until I loosen up

I just need someone as down for me

Someone to just tell me they proud of me

Somebody who’s really around for me

If ever they see me sink in, they swim in and they drown for me

The ones hittin' my line used to duck me when I called

Keep it real with me or don’t fuck with me at all

I’ve been dodgin' the fakes, the politics and the snakes

Your pride is big as your ego, see, I just couldn’t relate, for real

See, the difference is how we’re raised and where we came

And the bullet that landed three inches from my brain

And the fact that my soul is different than yours, no matter how many times

they compare us, man, we are not the same

Look, prayin' for peace in this world that we live in

Same time, I just pray I’m forgiven

They say I’m weak 'cause I put it all in the open

Had to swallow my pride and bottle up my emotions, look

I left the past in the past, no looking back now

But I ain’t complacent with where I’m at now

So in hopes that somebody else could relate to me, I take another sip of this

Henney and write these raps down
