Never Going Back
[Verse 1]
This ain't no history repeating
It's a new beginning
Let go of the fear that's holding you back
If you only knew what's ahead, you wouldn't want to miss it
Sis, I'm gonna promise you that
See I'm underestimated, underminded, underrated
If you only know what it takes, every day just to defeat it
You don't know where I came from, I don't know what I'm made of, you don't know
If you ain't living my story, then you ain't living my glory

[Chorus]
I ain't never going back
I've come too far for this, I've fought too hard to miss
I ain't never going back
I refuse to be what the past have made of me
I ain't nevеr going back (oh oh)
I ain't never going back

[Verse 2]
This ain't no history repеating
My mom had me at 18, sacrificed her dreams for me
She said 'Don't ever ever settle, compromise yourself
You're born to leave a legacy
You don't know where I came from, you don't know what I'm made of, you don't know
I ain't giving you my hours, I ain't giving you my power
[Chorus]
I ain't never going back
I've come too far for this, I've fought too hard to miss
I ain't never going back
I refuse to be what the past have made of me
I ain't never going back (oh oh)
I ain't ever going back

[Bridge]
See I wanna thank you
For fueling my fire
Thank you for the inspiration
For making me reach higher, higher, higher
This is my celebration
I ain't never going back
I won't dumb down for this, I will raise my voice for this
I ain't never going back, I almost died for this
I changed my life for this...
I ain't never going back
I ain't never going back (no, no, no)

[Outro]
I wanna thank you, I wanna thank you, I wanna thank you
For fueling my fire, for taking me higher
I ain't never going back
