Retrogress by Chris Wright Lyrics
One step forward, two steps back
I’m too tired to just relax
Slow step in the fire, it’s burning my back
Watching my bedroom turn into ash
Coughing my lungs out, bleeding out cash
Always been alone, always been a outcast
You would hit my phone, and I’d never hit back
Always kept quiet, I’ll always outlast
I can see the fire burning in the background, kinda wanna say something but I don’t
I just keep my mouth closed, eyes wide, everybody choking on smoke
And that’s all I got, till it take me too
Everything’s ash, and it sticks like glue
Stuck in my hair, feel it down to the roots
And the gunpowder snare hitting way too soon
One step forward, two steps back
And I'm still on track, i'm still on track
One step forward, two steps back
And I'm still on track
Can you take all my timе off the clock
Trynna run it back, skim a little off the top
Evеrything a rerun, I’m stuck inside the box
It feel like my brain never know when it should stop
But it just shut down, crashed on the 101
Really just the basic shit ain’t no fun
I ain’t got no life plan, that was off the jump
Now I’m really swimming, waiting, pushing through the ones
Always been a zero, stayed hella divided
Stuck up on the fence, Never knowing what my side is
Even when my friends flew high, I was gliding
They escaped the sun, I burned up in the silence
One step forward, two steps back
And I'm still on track, i'm still on track
One step forward, two steps back
And I'm still on track
Stuck inside my head again, looking for a way out
Think I let the devil in, he fucking with the layout
Messing up my feng shui, tearing up the lake house
Drowned in a river bed, sleep coming in waves now
Everything a movie dog, gotta let it play out
They tell me to let it go, but they never say how
Double lock the cups and the blunts in the safe house
I think I need a way out
Check up on me, if we ain’t talk in awhile
Been feeling lonely, like back when I was child
I retrogress pretty slowly
And I step once in a while
And if its, three dots then I’m working on it
And if its, green text then I’m working on me
And if it’s, No response then I’m probably in a full sprint
Running to the back of my mind
I’m too tired to just relax
Slow step in the fire, it’s burning my back
Watching my bedroom turn into ash
Coughing my lungs out, bleeding out cash
Always been alone, always been a outcast
You would hit my phone, and I’d never hit back
Always kept quiet, I’ll always outlast
I can see the fire burning in the background, kinda wanna say something but I don’t
I just keep my mouth closed, eyes wide, everybody choking on smoke
And that’s all I got, till it take me too
Everything’s ash, and it sticks like glue
Stuck in my hair, feel it down to the roots
And the gunpowder snare hitting way too soon
One step forward, two steps back
And I'm still on track, i'm still on track
One step forward, two steps back
And I'm still on track
Can you take all my timе off the clock
Trynna run it back, skim a little off the top
Evеrything a rerun, I’m stuck inside the box
It feel like my brain never know when it should stop
But it just shut down, crashed on the 101
Really just the basic shit ain’t no fun
I ain’t got no life plan, that was off the jump
Now I’m really swimming, waiting, pushing through the ones
Always been a zero, stayed hella divided
Stuck up on the fence, Never knowing what my side is

And I'm still on track, i'm still on track
One step forward, two steps back
