back - uncle osker lyrics

[intro]

one step forward but two steps back
one step forward, but two steps back
one step forward, alright check it

[hook]

one step forward, two steps back
two steps back two steps back
one step forward but two steps back
two back, two back

[verse 1]

i can’t lay on my pillow to go to sleep
and be guilt free, wastin’ time
contemplatin’ hate crimes and age questions
recordin’ the lessons i’ve learned on this page
day dreamin’ of leavin’ an audience in awe (two back)
then i snap back to my senses
resume, rappin’ these endless sentences
in the mood to risk losin’ everything (everything)
i get so excited over a slight victory
don’t pick up a pen for weeks
the fire in my belly is satisfied but i need to feed it more
would, i really keep doing this even if i were rich already?
flyin’ a g5 instead of drivin’ a dented chevy
(two steps) back to the main topic
i made no progress, yes i slaved away for hours
but i chose to rest a few days
i try to slow down life so i can make the right decision
cause hindsight’s a b-tch (a b-tch)
i try with my pen, i try not to mention my fight uphill
i try to pretend life’s alright
i try not to let them see me cry when i lost my bestfriend
(rest in peace alejandro)
i try and i try and i try again
but i’m tried of tryin’
i wanna start doin’, begin movin’

[hook]

one step forward, two steps back
two steps back two steps back
one step forward but two steps back
two back, two back

[verse 2]

i wanna advance mankind and unravel my brain
i traveled a long way but i went the wrong way
(two steps back) under pressure might crack
if i keep rolling the dice
i got what i want in my sights
but the road is so daunting
and there’s a strong chance that i won’t survive
how can i describe this feeling?
kinda feels like i’m walking over a black hole covered by quicksand
do you understand? do you truly get it?
man, everybody’s a critic
i just tread forward, probably coulda said more
but i’m hittin’ my stride
as some nice cars drive by
goin’ one hundred and fifty-five miles an hour
i can take you to outer sp-ce
take your breath away
that’s the effect i make with half a page
the man, the myth, the legend
gettin’ closer to the edge
these dark clouds sittin’ over my head
one car didn’t even care i was there when he drove past
so fast, that what i wrote on my notepad is gone forever
can’t read it, feel defeated
for the record, still puttin’ in effort
even though its hurtful
cause i know life comes full circle
now i’m in a vehicle p-ssin’ people (one forward)
gave up my savings for new car but i crashed it (two back)
that’s too bad, too bad

[hook]

one step forward, two steps back
two steps back two steps back
one step forward but two steps back
two back (f-ck), two back

[verse 3]

tryin’ to rewrite three verses
am i cursed or gifted?
the if’s and buts fill my skull
spill some ink and stare at the puddle, and wonder
if this was the ocean i was trynna locate
would i take a risk?
take a leap of faith and jump off of the cliff
i wonder
i wonder
