I must have been a burden the first hours of my life
The way dad pushed me and mom aside
Looking for a better life
Most of my family
Believes I’ll never be a star
Since I was old enough to make a change
I knew I’d make it far
Cause not knowing who you are
Keeps you wanting more
Set fire to your heart
Be your own light in the dark
I’m never looking back again
And I’m never settling again
I built these walls
To keep you out
I’ll chase the sun into the ground
But I’m never looking back again
Progressing smoothly now
Slowly defeating my self-doubt
Removed the dead weight of
Of the people who only
Look out for themselves
And now that I have grown
Enough to feel it in my bones
I think about the choices made
And all the winding roads
I’m sick of always being asked
If this fails what comes next?
Honestly, there’s nothing left
This is all I have
I’m never looking back again
And I’m never settling again
I built these walls
To keep you out
I’ll chase the sun into the ground
But I’m never looking back again
Undetermined, failure, burdened by the womb
Forced into this world by someone on the move
See the stars
Chase the moon
I can be anything
But nothing like you
The road is long
I’m too far gone
The burning sun is beating down
Still I’m never looking back again
I’m never looking back again
And I’m never settling again
I built these walls
To keep you out
I’ll chase the sun till it burns out
And I’m never looking back again
