I know I got a past
But I ain't chained to it
Know the road got rough
Had some pretty bad luck
But I still got through it
I know pain don't lie
Long as we keep movin'
May have lost my hope in the ways I cope
But I'm still not ruined
Oh, I keep movin'

Yeah, I'm not ashamed of my past
Course there are things that I wish I did different
But nobody's perfect, let's leave it at that
See, I went through hell and I'm still here
I went to war with all my fears
Scared of not reachin' the places I know that I'm capable of
And for so many years
I was the only one holdin' me back
I'll admit it, depression was kickin' my ass
All the nights I would wake up with panic attacks
I got too many countin' on me, that's a fact
But how can I fold when I know I'm [the group?]
Keepin' everyone swimmin'? They stayin' afloat
Mentally stronger than ever
I know I can handle the peaks if I get through the lows

I know I got a past
But I ain't chained to it
Know the road got rough
Had some pretty bad luck
But I still got through it
I know pain don't lie
Long as we keep movin'
May have lost my hope in the ways I cope
But I'm still not ruined
Oh, I keep movin'

This for the younger me writin' inside of his room
Hidin' the pages right under my mattress and jottin' my struggles that nobody knew
This for the kids with a hope and a dream
Would struggle and fight with their own self-esteem
Scared of just bein' a disappointment to the fam
Don't ever let them kill your dreams
There'll always be haters, just use it as motivation
On this journey, you need to embrace
Trust in a few and believe in yourself
Even when nothin's fallin' into place
It's all for a reason, I get it, I'm over that sayin'
But trust me, [old me?] understand
Nothin' worth happen will ever happen overnight
Have faith, it's all in the plans

I know I got a past
But I ain't chained to it (No, I ain't chained to it)
Know the road got rough
Had some pretty bad luck
But I still got through it (Got through it)
I know pain don't lie (Don't lie, don't lie)
Long as we keep movin' (Long as we keep movin')
May have lost my hope in the ways I cope
But I'm still not ruined
Oh, I keep movin'

Oh, I keep movin', oh
