NO RETURN FLIGHT

Yeah Ain't no return flight Once you finally see the world bigger than your block Facts I can't go back to the old me That motherfucker died somewhere on the highway Back when fear had a room key Now I kick those down if the vibe say wait (woo!) Whole city move robotic I had to break habits just to think straight No return flight, no rewind Once you level up the view don't look the same [Verse 1] I used to sit rooftop watching cop lights flicker Hood toss survival but my mind got bigger Mama said stay safe, pop said get figures I learned both truths while the rent climbed quicker Goddamn, see pain got a funny way to sharpen perspective Same dudes joke loud but they secretly depressive Liquor store philosophers preaching fake progression Whole crew scared to dream past they intersection And that shit contagious You become what you around if you don't fight stages Caught for feel warm to the comfort turned cages Seen grown men peak and spend life outdated So I disappeared late nights, cheap flights Nothing but a backpack Had anxiety so strong I thought my chest cracked Still boarded every plane like fuck it, next chapter 'Cause regret hurt worse than the risk gone bad after Now my phone got calls from places I can't spell right Used to fear opinions now I dead 'em at a red light Funny how the same people that doubted every damn move Suddenly inspired once the checks and respect rise, look [Chorus] I can't go back to the old me That motherfucker died somewhere on the highway Back when fear had a room key Now I kick those down if the vibe say wait (woo!) Whole city move robotic I had to break habits just to think straight No return flight, no rewind Once you level up the view don't look the same [Verse 2] Everybody say they hungry till the meal get risky Everybody love growth till the shit look iffy That's why most dreams die still wearing factory settings Motherfuckers too afraid to fail publicly I done seen talent waste away in group chats Seen brilliant minds overdose with a stat pack Seen dudes with billion dollar ideas stay local 'Cause they scared somebody online gonna clown 'em Fuck that, the world don't hand courage out, you build it One scary ass decision at a time till you fearless Till your passport thicker than the doubt in your spirit Till your inner voice finally sound louder than critics I want villas with ocean views Late night sessions and foreign rooms Grammys for the features for all the nights I survived off chips and Arizona juice And I ain't ashamed of ambition neither People treat broke struggle like it make you deeper Nah, I want freedom for my family bloodline And if that make me obsessed then fuck it, I need it [Outro] [drums drop out, guitar and strings fade] No return No return (Yeah) You know what the craziest part is? Most people never leave the version of themselves That's killing 'em
