[Verse 1] Mama pulled doubles so the lights stayed on Cousin gave me his last twenty, said, "Go, you're the one" Now I'm in the back seat, windows rolled up tight Platinum on the wall, but the house too quiet tonight Used to dream of the crowd, now I'm dreaming of the stoop Where we split one pizza between a whole damn group They said, "Don't forget us," I said, "Never, on my life" Now I can't find a number that I trust on my phone tonight [Pre-Chorus] I made it out, but I left them there Called it "the grind" 'cause I couldn't call it fear [Chorus] Everybody in my rearview, nobody in my corner Won every room I walked in, still I'm lonely in the glow Trophies on the dashboard, but who's gonna ride with me? Everybody in my rearview, nobody in my corner Tell me what's the win if I'm winning on my own [Verse 2] Old friend at the light, I pretended not to see 'Cause he knows who I was before the plaque, before the "we" Now they want a feature, want a favor, want a photo Nobody asks if I'm okay, they just ask for the logo I'm not mad at the money, I'm not mad at the fame I'm mad that I remember every single one by name All the ones who held the ladder while I climbed up to the top Then I kicked it down, not meaning to, I just never looked back, never stopped [Pre-Chorus] I made it out, but I left them there Called it "the grind" 'cause I couldn't call it fear [Chorus] Everybody in my rearview, nobody in my corner Won every room I walked in, still I'm lonely in the glow Trophies on the dashboard, but who's gonna ride with me? Everybody in my rearview, nobody in my corner Tell me what's the win if I'm winning on my own [Bridge - slow, stripped] Turn the car around Turn the car around If I can't buy it back, I'll knock on every door Turn the car around [Final Chorus] Everybody in my rearview, and I'm finally going back
