Mama told me
(Intro) Windows down on a midnight ride City lights while I’m losing my mind Too many thoughts that I keep inside Trying to heal but the pain still hide Everybody saying “you gon’ be alright” But they don’t know what I feel at night So I keep writing songs just to survive Hoping one day everything feel right (Hook) Mama told me leave the past in the past, But life is moving too fast Got pain in my chest, yeah that feeling still lasts Smile for the world while my heart still crash Mama told me leave the past in the past, But life is moving too fast Everybody changing, nothing ever lasts So I write these songs while I’m living too fast (Verse 1) I been on my own, tryna chase big dreams Small town kid but my mind on bigger things People switched up, now they acting unseen Used to be close, now it’s silence in between Late night thoughts when I stare at the roof Everybody got opinions, they don’t know the truth I was down bad, had nothing to lose Now I’m in the booth turning pain into tunes And I still got scars that I never show Tryna stay strong but it’s hard though Friends turn fake when the lights glow Guess that’s just the way life go Young kid carrying all this stress Trying my best while I feel obsessed With proving everybody wrong instead Of getting all these thoughts out my head (Pre-Hook) And I know time flies Can’t get these memories out my mind I keep on running from my past life But somehow it keeps catching up every night (Hook) Mama told me leave the past in the past, But life is moving too fast Got pain in my chest, yeah that feeling still lasts Smile for the world while my heart still crash Mama told me leave the past in the past, But life is moving too fast Everybody changing, nothing ever lasts So I write these songs while I’m living too fast (Verse 2) I remember days I was feeling so low Now they singing every word at my shows Still got fears that nobody knows Still hear memories when the night gets cold I just wanna make my family proud Turn these dark days into rolling loud crowds Head in the clouds but my feet on ground Lost for a minute but I’m found right now Back then they ain’t believe in me Now they see the vision differently Every heartbreak turned to energy Every setback built the best of me I done spent nights with no sleep Writing all these songs so the pain don’t creep Told myself one day I’d finally leave And become everything they said I couldn’t be (Bridge) Sometimes I miss the old days Before the stress and the cold rain Before everybody changed Before love started bringing pain But I can’t go backwards now Too far ahead, can’t slow down Even when my world falls down I still get up and stand proud (Final Hook) Mama told me leave the past in the past, But life is moving too fast One day we here then it’s gone in a flash So I’m making every moment last Mama told me leave the past in the past, But life is moving too fast I got dreams that I gotta go chase So I keep on running no breaks (Outro) Yeah… Life moving too fast But I ain’t giving up now Turn pain into music That’s forever.
