I had a habit of lookin' back Like a ghost ridin’ shotgun in a beat-up past Every wrong turn, every almost win Kept talkin’ loud every time I’d spin Dashboard cracked from the weight of it all Miles ahead but I felt that stall White knuckles on what used to be While the road kept callin’ me Then I hit a stretch where the silence got loud Said it out straight just to hear it now I threw my rearview out the window Watched it shatter on the asphalt below No more ghosts in the glass starin’ back at me No more chains on who I used to be Full tank burnin’ on a wide-open track Yeah I meant it when I said No lookin' back No lookin’ back, no lookin’ back Left it in the dust and I ain’t goin’ back No lookin’ back, no lookin’ back Rearview shattered and I’m done with that There were lessons there, I will not lie Some scars teach you how to drive But I was stuck in a rerun scene Of who I was, not who I could be Every mile marker felt like proof That I was still tied to that old truth Till I realized what it cost Keepin’ tabs on what I lost Turns out my rearview worked just fine I was never meant to drive that life You can learn from the fire without livin’ in smoke That hit me hard somewhere west of broke I threw my rearview out the window Watched it shatter on the asphalt below No more ghosts in the glass starin’ back at me No more chains on who I used to be Full tank burnin’ on a wide-open track Yeah I meant it when I said No lookin’ back No lookin’ back, no lookin’ back Left it in the dust and I ain’t goin’ back No lookin’ back, no lookin’ back Rearview shattered and I’m done with that I used to think I had to carry it all Every win, every miss, every rise, every fall Turns out my rearview worked just fine I just kept readin’ it like a warning sign You do not outrun it by drivin’ fast You let it go and you leave it back No more checkin’ what’s behind me No more doubt tryin’ to define me If it broke me, it built me strong But it does not get to ride along Yeah I threw my rearview out the window Let it scatter like the man I outgrew No more shadows in the glass tryin’ to find me Just headlights cuttin’ through Full tank burnin’ and I ain’t comin’ back Yeah I meant it when I said NO LOOKIN’ BACK No lookin’ back, no lookin’ back Left it in the dust and I ain’t goin’ back No lookin’ back, no lookin’ back Rearview shattered and I’m done with that
