VERSE 1:
Did you say something / I'm sure I heard you mumbling / Don't you turn your back on me I feel my blood rushing / Our past is tainted / We can't replace the tears we shed / I heard you say you like the way they look, I saw you look right over there when you thought I wasn't looking, don't stutter / I say it again today / I'm leaving like yesterday


CHORUS:
The past keeps holding us down like shackles, shackles / 'Cause we're holding on and fighting off old battles, battles / I wanna run / Erase everyone / Can't be undone, no / Black History


VERSE 2: I know that look and / I know just when you're lying / I know the words you use when you think we should stop trying / You've seen it all before / Still fixing the broke once more / Here come the questions / Forever 2nd guess games / Sitting wondering why the hell we're back up on this jet plane / Privacy all aboard / But we can't hide uncertain thoughts

CHORUS


BRIDGE:
Don't think I can go, I don't think I can go back / Don't wanna think about all the things that happened 'cause we know that / Every single time we try to make it work it just explodes, fact is that you've got a hold on me / Black History / Don't think I can go, I don't think I can go back / Don't wanna think about all the things that happened 'cause we know that / Every single time we try to make it work it just explodes, fact is that you've got a hold on me
