Looking Back Lyrics

Late in June, summer of 75

Came outta my mama feeling so damn alive

Took my first breath, doctor said to me

I wish ya good luck you're going to need it JP

Built my foundation, put it on the sand

That's why I'm the way that I am

Thoughts always racing

Cascading through my brain

Can't clear my mind, its driving me insane

Anxiety is what these thoughts are bringing

Overthinking me, overthinking my overthinking

Ya know what? I kinda think I got this

Aww who am I kidding, I'm bearing false witness

Always knew, life don't mean infinity

At five years old, I knew how short a life could be

It's a choice to have some positivity

Cause life's too short for all that negativity

We have a hand in choosing our own destiny

But how do you handle adversity

The world is what you make, that's no fallacy

A positive mindset is the center of your gravity

This is a story about Jim's mom that Jim probably don't even know

I thought about my mom in a coffin in third grade

Cried, went to the office, she's like, you got two hours left

You're going to be good...cause I said I was sick

But..so I'm weirdo, dude

I've always been a fucking weirdo

It's true

I've learned a lot about what not to do

Got really good at reading the tension in the room

Am I perfect? That will be a hell no

First whiff of drama, baby, that's when it's time to go

Got in tune with the language of the body

If it's off, just leave, don't want to hurt nobody

Call it a flaw, a defense mechanism

Shooting for happiness, not perfectionism

They say I'm weak, or maybe I'm smart

Avoid toxicity, cause it tears us apart

I'd rather be oblivious to all that drama

Than be involved, I don't need that karma

Always knew, life don't mean infinity

At five years old, I knew how short a life could be

It's a choice to have some positivity

Cause life's too short for all that negativity

We have a hand in choosing our own destiny

But how do you handle adversity

The world is what you make, that's no fallacy

A positive mindset is the center of your gravity

The center of our gravity
