My Own City

If I'm dead Then why do I feel alive? I didn't even cry When I left myself behind If I'm dead Well, I must be a mastermind To had faked it for my whole life Until this moment I never got the chance to say goodbye I didn't understand but now I know why 'Cause I don't wanna stay the same We were born to change And you can fight it, but you'll figure out It's gonna happen anyway They say relax, gotta stay on check But I'm taking the back roads In my own city (ah-ah-ah) (Ah-ah-ah) And I know The past doesn't go away Parts of it always stay And turn into shadows I've got no regrets Forgive, forget, it's fine But back in the day I might have lost my mind 'Cause I don't wanna stay the same We were born to change And you can fight it, but you'll figure out It's gonna happen anyway They say relax, gotta stay on check But I'm taking the back roads In my own city I haven't felt this fire in all my life I always thought it had to feel like sacrifice 'Cause I don't wanna stay the same We were born to change And you can fight it, but you'll figure out It's gonna happen anyway They say relax, gotta stay on check But I'm taking the back roads In my own city In my own city In my own city In my own city
