Verse 1 These streets know every step I take Every scar, every mistake Every night that felt too long Every time I got it wrong Old memories without a gain Like ghosts that still remain But I feel something inside of me Saying I don’t have to stay Pre-Chorus There’s a road calling my soul tonight And I know I have to go Chorus I’d rather be Somewhere far from yesterday Where the past can fade away And the sky can set me free I’d rather be Starting over, just believe Leaving who I used to be For the life I’m meant to see That’s where I’d rather be Verse 2 Packed my dreams in a worn suitcase Tears and hope on the same face Every mile that I leave behind Feels like breathing for the first time No more chains from yesterday No more fear to make me stay There’s a world out there for me And tonight I finally see Pre-Chorus There’s a road calling my soul tonight And I’m not turning back Chorus I’d rather be Somewhere far from yesterday Where the past can fade away And the sky can set me free I’d rather be Starting over, just believe Leaving who I used to be For the life I’m meant to see Bridge I’m done carrying the weight Of every wound and every shame The past can keep its memories They don’t get to keep me Final Chorus I’d rather be Standing where the future calls Where my heart can rise and fall Without fear surrounding me I’d rather be Living like I’m finally free Becoming who I’m meant to be That’s where I’d rather be Outro(improv) So I’m walking out tonight Leaving far away For the life I’ve yet to see That’s where I’d rather be.
