I'm reminiscing elementary
Back when I had friends and they had my back like Calvary
But I guess we all grew up
And as soon as we graduated some acted like they don't know me, uh
It's not surprising I kinda find it funny
It's not surprising I'm making all this money
And if I'm loved then why do I still feel lonely
Why do I feel I won't make it past my twenties
But when I'm feeling like I'm stuck
And all my past is piling up
I remember what mom said when I was twelve
Just don't lose
Don't lose
Don't lose yourself
Just don't lose
Don't lose yourself
Don't worry mama I won't ever forget the words that you said
Back when I was seven, fighting back cause I was stupid
Trying to look for love but wasn't hit by a Cupid
Tried to hide emotions but that was so dang foolish
Aye
I know papa that you're really proud of me
It took a couple years but now I'm feeling free
You understood me when I left the house
Understand it more when I move out
But when I'm feeling like I'm stuck
And all my past is piling up
I remember what mom said when I was twelve
Just don't lose
Don't lose
Don't lose yourself
Just don't lose
Don't lose yourself
Yeah I remember back in school
I was breaking all the rules
My heart was never quiet
But somehow I'm sitting here
Paralyzed by all my fears
Tonight
I'm still counting the days
Tryna find ways out of this maze
Cause I've been finding it hard
Even till after all of this change
But when I'm feeling like I'm stuck
And all my past is piling up
I remember what mom said when I was twelve
Just don't lose
Don't lose
Don't lose yourself
Just don't lose
Don't lose yourself
