Hen Dawg - Never Coulda Stayed Lyrics

I fell out with my exes, always asking me for more
And put my goals first over those that I adore
I'm moving cross country whenever I open doors
And fall in love with dreams but not a girl that's on all fours

And every time she's faded always hitting me up
I'm always missing 20 calls she's persistent as f*ck, yup
And I'm just busy the life of a young pup
Cus not even time is free when you're climbing your way, up

The work I put in daily swear you couldn't relate
Trading in my social life for a chance to be great
But I swear since 98' it's always no debate
On the lonely path to greatness, hope it's not a mistake

And ever since I first left home
Swear it's so surreal how it's changed my dome
Pushing back memories I shoulda never known
Haunting my dreams but at least I've grown (Ya know?)

I'm still chasing these shots
Still f*cking up, but I'm never on a cot
I'm still never sleeping on a brand new thought
But I swear the one last night was too hot

Going back home for quick trips and visits
Back and forth In my head, as I debate the business
But only one life, don't wanna waste my minutes
So f*ck that self-doubt you'll be making the distance

And when I'm back in town every girl wants to visit
Always looking for some real, but ends up with a pittance
Leave it all on her face say I'll be back in a minute
But I'm leaving so quick you'd know that was a gimmick

We had a connection but I just chose to evade
I'm Thinking back on "what if's" maybe I shoulda just stayed
But my life is at a fast pace, yours is like its weighed
Chasing dreams and far off visions, swear I never coulda stayed
