[Verse 1] Four walls, one life, they picked it out for me ā€œSit down, shut up, be who you’re supposed to beā€ Every little dream got buried in the noise Every ā€œdon’tā€ got louder than my voice I learned the rules, I wore them like a chain Smiled for the pictures while I swallowed all the pain But there’s a fire burning underneath And tonight I’m finally gonna let it breathe [Pre-Chorus] I hear them yelling down the hallway Telling me I’ll never make it on my own But I’ve been suffocating here forever So I’d rather crash than call this place my home [Chorus] So I’m driving, driving into the night Dashboard glowing, headlights cutting through the dark No map, no plan, no looking back Just a full tank and a heart that won’t slow down They said, ā€œGirl, you don’t know what you’re doingā€ Maybe that’s the point — I’ve got nothing left to lose For the first time, this life is mine I’m leaving all their ā€œsomedayā€ dreams behind No turning back No, I’m not turning back tonight [Verse 2] Keys in my hand, my bag in the backseat Heart pounding harder than the radio beat I hear the front door slam behind me But the road ahead is wide open and it’s calling me Red lights, green lights, tears in my eyes Watching that old house disappear behind I laugh so hard that I start to cry I never knew that freedom could feel this alive [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I’m scared, maybe I’m reckless Maybe tomorrow I’ll regret this choice But every mile is making me feel lighter And for the first time, I can hear my own voice [Chorus] So I’m driving, driving into the night Dashboard glowing, headlights cutting through the dark No map, no plan, no looking back Just a full tank and a heart that won’t slow down They said, ā€œGirl, you don’t know what you’re doingā€ Maybe that’s the point — I’ve got nothing left to lose For the first time, this life is mine I’m leaving all their ā€œsomedayā€ dreams behind No turning back No, I’m not turning back tonight [Bridge – stripped down, building] Maybe I’ll fall Maybe I’ll break Maybe I’ll screw up along the way But every wrong turn will be mine Every scar will be a part of the ride I spent too long being scared to fly Scared to live, scared to even try Now the sunrise is breaking through And for once, I get to choose [Breakdown] Oh-oh-oh! I’m not your little girl anymore! Oh-oh-oh! I’m not waiting by that door! Oh-oh-oh! You can keep your perfect life! Oh-oh-oh! I’m gonna make this one mine! [Final Chorus – euphoric] I’m driving, driving into the light Windows down, screaming like I’m finally alive No map, no plan, no looking back The whole damn world is waiting on the other side of that You said, ā€œGirl, you don’t know what you’re doingā€ Well, watch me now — I’ve got nothing left to prove For the first time, this life is mine And I’m gonna burn so bright, I’ll leave that past behind Yeah, I’m driving, driving into the light Windows down and I’m feeling alive No more chains and no more lies Just me, this road, and an open sky [Outro] No turning back I’m finally free No turning back This is who I’ll be No turning back... Yeah, this road belongs to me.
