Back to where we started out

[Verse 1]
Seems like yesterday waiting at the bus stop for school
Thought I was tripping shit thinking I could mimic your cool
Life started to separate us yeah that felt like pulling teeth
But I was drawn to the beat while you were called to the streets
Still can't believe you've been gone for damn near two decades
Long as there's breath in my lungs your memory can't fade
Never forget the day that Phoeno called and said what it do
I just pray that you're in Heaven fam enjoying the view
I'll forever miss you
[Chorus]
Can we go back yeah
Back to where we
Can we go back back
Back to where we started out
Started out
Started out
Started out
[Verse 2]
We weren't ready for commitment our shit was snake bitten
Shoulder to shoulder in a Malibu and you could feel distance
Like to think you were the one but you were one of many women
Now that times passed I'm man enough to admit it
Broke your heart in a million pieces Moms said you could do better
Heard your married with a family you pieced yourself back together
I take blame but you the know saying Birds of a feather
When I reminisce on you that's what I remember Best wishes
[Chorus]
Can we go back yeah
Back to where we
Can we go back back
Back to where we started out
Started out
Started out
Started out
[Verse 3]
You see my dad passed before my child was born
Another page from my book of life just got torn
I mourn with dry eyes cause I ain't know you
But even at my age there's still show much I want to show you
I daydream about all the things I would barter
To bring you back so I can see you hold my daughter
Didn't invite you to see us walk down the altar
You been gone four years feel like the wound just gets larger
[Chorus]
Can we go back yeah
Back to where we
Can we go back back
Back to where we started out
Started out
Started out
Started out
[Verse 4]
In all things I give thanks
I give thanks to my higher power
I look to the hills from where comes my help
My help comes from the Lord
I'm thankful that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me
I thank my loved ones looking out for me from the beyond
I thank the universe for always having my back
I know that I'm truly blessed
[Chorus]
Can we go back yeah
Back to where we
Can we go back back
Back to where we started out
Started out
Started out
