[Chorus: Aspen Dawn]

I never once looked before I jumped

They say that's just because I'm young

And when I fall down and skin my knees

I never believe that I will bleed, running wild, living free

The freest we will ever be

You and I will live our lives like we're never gonna die


[Verse 1: Abstract]

You ask what I would change

If I could go back to the days when I was tired of my ways

Would I set fire to the pain when life refused to stay the same?

I know I'm not the best with change

Never been the one to act my age

Never been too quick to turn the page

Lives younger than I am now

I swear 6 years feel like 95

Feel like through it I done lived a couple lives

There's a growing process to the other side

Happiness is never given, no, happiness is a decision, so

I been learning how to live it, slow, take it in with every minute, go

Nowadays everybody want it right now, that's a dream

That's money, that's our culture right now

That's a Netflix binge, that's a quick text back

Anxiety built when it ain't like that

That's a lot of life lost living life too fast

Lot of views unseen, lotta love gets lost

Skimming through our lives so we staying on the surface

Run on water cause we feel the depths uncertain

Swear life's better when you just dive in

Fakes don't float where the real ones swim

Depths get deep where the real takes leaps

And the sharks gon' eat what the real deem weak

So much underneath if you just take time

To explore your world both in and outside

No one's life like yours, no one's life like mine

I just hope you see the beauty 'fore it pass you by


[Chorus: Aspen Dawn]

I never once looked before I jumped

They say that's just because I'm young

And when I fall down and skin my knees

I never believe that I will bleed, running wild, living free

The freest we will ever be

You and I will live our lives like we're never gonna die


[Verse 2: Abstract]

Needed me to hear it, I need you to see it

Everything you are, hope you get to be it

This right here the secret while you're getting there

Elevation changes, feel it in the air

Don't forget to breathe it, don't forget to stop

Look behind you at the miles that you walked

Beauty is the journey getting to the dream

Dreams are dreamt to teach us who we're meant to be

Bigger than revenge, bigger than an ends

I was young and stupid, I cannot pretend

But this journey taught me what I had to be

Wasn't always pretty but I had to see

Wasn't always me, sometimes it was greed

Sometimes it was hate, we all make mistakes

Life ain't always great, but we're 'sposed to learn

Play with fire, know that life will get you burned

So I been chasing lifelines for a lifetime

Now I have my heart in the right place at the right time

With the right girl in the right world

I learned about how love really feel

I taught myself how to really heal

Went from what's up to what's really real

'Cause the world got a plan way bigger than your dreams

It don't care what you want, it just care what you need

Gonna take you through a process, never make it obvious

Most times you ain't even gonna see the progress

Stop one day on your way on up

When the air gets thin and the road gets rough

See the beauty in the steps that you're yet to take

And find the steps you missed were never by mistake


[Chorus: Aspen Dawn]

I never once looked before I jumped

They say that's just because I'm young

And when I fall down and skin my knees

I never believe that I will bleed, running wild, living free

The freest we will ever be

You and I will live our lives like we're never gonna die
