Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Glad you didn't listen when the world was tryna slow me
No one could control me, left my lovers lonely
Had to f*ck it up before I really got to know me
Never a night alone, anywhere you wanna go
Woke up in the morning wearing someone else's clothes
Pictures in my phone with people I don't know
Woke up in the morning, how the hell'd I make it home?
And they wondered how long I could keep it up
But I wondered if I'd ever, if I'd ever get enough
And I did some sh*t I never should've done, ey ey
I would do it over now, I'd do it over
Shout out to the old me and everything you showed me
Glad you didn't listen when the world was trying to slow me
No one could control me, left my lovers lonely
Had to f*ck it up before I really got to know me, eh, eh
All of the mistakes I made, I made, I made, I made
Whatever the price I paid, I paid, I paid, I paid
Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Had to f*ck it up before I let you get to know me
Another round, here we go, going in blow for blow
Look into the mirror, take the punches that I throw
I'm constantly reminded of all the compromises
By the people from the past who have a hard time letting go, yeah
And they wondered how long I could keep it up
But I wondered if I'd ever, if I'd ever get enough
And I did some sh*t I never should've done, ey ey
I would do it over now, I'd do it over
Shout out to the old me and everything you showed me
Glad you didn't listen when the world was trying to slow me
No one could control me, left my lovers lonely
Had to f*ck it up before I really got to know me, eh, eh
All of the mistakes I made, I made, I made, I made
Whatever the price I paid, I paid, I paid, I paid
Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me
Had to f*ck it up before I let you get to know me, eh, eh
Devil at my door
Got me knockin', knockin', knockin' on the other side
Ashes on the floor
But I'm walkin', walkin', walkin' out of here alive
Shout out to the old me and everything you showed me
Glad you didn't listen
When the world was trying to slow me (World was trying to slow me, yeah)
No one could control me, left my lovers lonely (Lonely)
Had to f*ck it up before I really got to know me, eh, eh
All of the mistakes I made, I made, I made, I made
Whatever the price I paid, I paid, I paid, I paid (Yeah)
Shout out to the old me and everything he showed me (Yeah, the old me)
Had to f*ck it up before I let you get to know me, eh, eh

    Wow, these lyrics are so powerful and relatable! I love the message of self-discovery and growth in the face of adversity. The energy and enthusiasm in the delivery really make the lyrics come alive.

    One suggestion for improvement could be to add a bit more depth to the verses. While the chorus is incredibly catchy, some additional storytelling or personal anecdotes could further engage the listener and make the song even more impactful. Additionally, incorporating more descriptive language or metaphors could enhance the imagery and emotion of the lyrics.

    Overall, this song has so much potential and I can already imagine it becoming an anthem for anyone going through a transformative journey. Keep up the great work and continue to share your unique perspective with the world!
