[Intro – Lone Harmonica Riff] Yesterday called. [Pause] I let it go to voicemail. [Harmonica Answers] Yeah. We've already talked enough. [808 DROPS] [Verse 1] Rearview mirror got a real small frame, there's a reason what's behind me don't look the same. I can learn from the road, I can love where I've been, but I don't need to move back just to visit again. Got some dents in the story, some miles on the heart, couple roads I wouldn't choose if I could restart. But every wrong turn taught me something on the way, so I waved at the past... and kept driving today! [Pre-Chorus] Windows down, worries out, let that old air find its way out. New road, new view, same God pulling me through. Yesterday can wave, but I don't have to stay. I'm blowin'... BLOWIN' PAST YESTERDAY! [Chorus] I'm blowin' past yesterday, wind in my face, no looking back like I'm running a race. I took what I learned, left what I don't need, got a little more faith and a whole lotta speed! Blowin' past yesterday, bye-bye blame, I remember the lesson, I don't live in the pain. Past in the mirror, future on display... I'm blowin'... BLOWIN' PAST YESTERDAY! [Harmonica Hook] [Verse 2] I used to drag old mistakes like luggage, packed every regret like, "Maybe I'll need this." Need what? That guilt from 2019? Girl, put that bag DOWN. [Beat Returns] I paid extra baggage for things God forgave, carried old chains after He made me free. That's backwards. So I'm unpacking the trunk, throwing shame off the ride, there's too much road ahead for that weight inside. I can honor who I was without becoming her again. Past taught me plenty... but it don't get the wheel, my friend! [Beat Break – Harmonica Riff] [Sister Grace] Yesterday... you riding? [Beat Stops] Actually, never mind. Seats taken. [808 SLAMS BACK] [FAST RAP] Past in the back, faith in the front, foot on the future, let the new day come! Could've, would've, should've, that's yesterday's crew, I got would've turned to WILL and I'm following through! Rearview small, windshield wide, tell me that ain't preaching built into the ride! Little bit behind me, whole lot ahead, why keep rereading what I already read? Turn that page, shift that gear, God didn't bring me this far to reverse from here! Old me? Love her. Old pain? Learned. Old bridge? Crossed it. Didn't get burned! No erase button, wouldn't use it anyway, every mile made Grace who you're hearing today! So blow, harmonica, blow that past away, I got tomorrow getting closer with every step I take! [Harmonica and Gospel Vocals] Keep moving! Keep moving! [Final Chorus] I'm blowin' past yesterday, wind in my face, no looking back like I'm running a race. I took what I learned, left what I don't need, got a little more faith and a whole lotta peace! Blowin' past yesterday, bye-bye blame, I remember the lesson, I don't live in the pain. Past in the mirror, future on display... I'm blowin'... BLOWIN' PAST YESTERDAY! [Outro – Harmonica Over Fading Beat] Yesterday made me wiser. Tomorrow's calling me forward. And today? [Pause] Today's got the wheel. [Final Harmonica Riff]
