[Hook: D. Ciano & Delayne Nicole]
It's no looking back, it's no looking back
It's no looking back, it's no looking back
It's no looking back, it's no looking back
It's no looking back, it's no looking back
[Verse 1: D. Ciano]
It's no looking back, I've been sober in fact
A break from muses to make the music, been focused on that
I was tired of waiting, but the feeling's going on flat
And that distinguishes headliners from opening acts
But I'm back, and my time is now
Prefer and audience but don't mind the crowd
And I'm only silent because my mind is loud
I never been high but I've dealt with the lows
I've come a long way from oversized belts and Girbauds
I've made it, too far to quit I'm here to fill a void
From where they don't see overseas without being deployed
And they don't call themselves emcees they just rapping for noise
And blowing up is just a dream so they'd rather be employed
But first take unoriginality out the mix
These Stephen A rappers make Albums that you gotta skip
The light'll separate the real from the counterfeit
I made my mark on the city and got up out of it
It's no looking back
[Chorus: Delayne Nicole]
Even when I'm faced with doubt
And it feels like times running out
Forever blind to what I'm without
Cause I know nothing can break me down
(Verse 2: D. Ciano)
Chasing these dreams without a Queen, it all seems gray
Cause Most Def I've been looking, have y'all seen Bae?
Yea, but that's a New Danger I can't afford
Risking it all, cause with no risk there's no reward
And it's change not change how I align my verse
Think Scrooge McDuck, my character defines my worth
See they do it for the vine, what I'm doing is divine
Between greatness and tracing somewhere you gotta draw the line
There's a difference when you want your vision witnessed by the blind
And my CDs are CDs they're gaining interest over time
I'm… here with a message, I see you're miseducated
But… It's such a blessing to be underestimated
They tryna k** the youth, concealed the proof, I feel for you
Realized the real lies, so I spill the truth
Putting my heart in every verse that I give to you
So when the earth claims my body Ima live through you
[Chorus]
[Hook]
