Can’t I just turn back the clock?
Forgive my sins?
I just wanna roll my sleeves up
And start again
I know that I messed it up
Time and time again
But I just wanna roll my sleeves up
And start again

I was switchin’ up the lanes
Steppin’ out the frame I’m in
I was pulling on the reins
Sick of all the same happenin’
I swear I was looking for disaster
Mixed with a bottle of gin
And just because I come home after
Doesn’t mean you’ll take me in

You see my world is spinning like there’s nothing below
You see my world is feeling like it just might explode
And yes I know it’s hard to take it backwards from my mind
I need to get it right, need to see some light come in

Can’t I just turn back the clock?
Forgive my sins?
I just wanna roll my sleeves up
And start again
I know that I messed it up
Time and time again
I just wanna roll my sleeves up
And start again

Sono uno che non cambia e a cui non basta mai
Uno a cui non passa se non passa i guai
Io voglio che stai non che mi guardi e vai
Dalla vita non si scappa con fondo tramonto e alba
Ti dirò la verità anche al costo di inventarla (ehi)
Non dici niente che io già non so (ehi)
Vengo dal niente, ora il quartiere è al top (ehi)
Solo sempre mi hai chiesto quell’autostop, no no no

E non sai come sto, hai solo letto quel post
E mi sposto dal bordo con il tappeto bordeaux
Avevo un sogno nel cassetto adesso ho un sogno nel box (Benz)
Quando mi hanno detto no io l’ho fatto lo stesso (we start again)

Can’t I just turn back the clock?
Forgive my sins?
I just wanna roll my sleeves up
And start again
I know that I messed it up
Time and time again
I just wanna roll my sleeves up
And start again

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

And yes I know it’s hard to take it backwards from my mind
I need to get it right, need to see some light come in
Can’t I just turn back the clock?
Forgive my sins?
I just wanna roll my sleeves up
And start again
