Necessary
Sometimes in life
You just gotta let things go
Let people go
No matter how hard it may be
Ain't no way to go forward without it
So just leave it all behind
And keep moving
Looking back isn't neccesary, no
I had to cut some things off because it's less to carry, yeah
Looking back isn't neccesary, no
I had to cut some people off because it's less to carry, yeah
She don't want me to leave but I been gone for a while, yeah
It's gonna hurt eventually, but until then, I gotta keep a smile, yeah
I had to cut some people off cause they was holding me down
Shout out mama cause the whole time she was holding me down
Told me some won't appreciate you until they need you
And then they'll beg to see you, probably beg to feed you
When you was starving, stomach hurting, they was not around
Friends ghost from the timeline when you not in town
And see they instagrams they cliqued up and photogenic
When I told them fuck you, finally, best believe I meant it
My real friends is still my day ones, and at my worst
They bore the weight of my worst flaws, wore it like a curse
I be there for them, till fate calls, until the hearse
I love y'all, and that bar right there was not rehearsed
I used to perform to impress strangers
Started to lose the real me, and honestly that's the danger
So until I see that baby in a manger
This is me the real me, I took my heart off of the hanger
Looking back isn't neccesary, no
I had to cut some things off because it's less to carry, yeah
Looking back isn't neccesary, no
I had to cut some people off because it's less to carry, yeah
She don't want me to leave but I been gone for a while, yeah
It's gonna hurt eventually, but until then, I gotta keep a smile, yeah
I had to cut that woman off, she was too good for me
The man she needed in her life, I knew I couldn't be
I had some things I had to work on, but it wouldn't be
Convenient enough she found a man, I know I shouldn't be
Selfish and salty, we were both switching cities
I liked her cause for her age, she was seasoned, plus she was pretty
But she was too accustomed to the life she always knew
I liked to travel the world and try on different shoes
I had some different girls, I went through different friends
Almost crashed an AMG, and drove a different Benz
Partied with kids with too much money, I ain't missing them
But I'd be down for one more night down in Switzerland
I'd like to think that maybe she was the one
Sometimes I still sit and think bout what we coulda become
I'm in Atlanta chasing dreams when she pops up
But I could pop tomorrow, so I had to give that broad up
Looking back isn't neccesary, no
I had to cut some things off because it's less to carry, yeah
Looking back isn't neccesary, no
I had to cut some people off because it's less to carry, yeah
She don't want me to leave but I been gone for a while, yeah
It's gonna hurt eventually, but until then, I gotta keep a smile, yeah
Looking back isn't neccesary, no, no
Leave it all behind cause that's less to carry, yeah, yeah
You just gotta let things go
Let people go
No matter how hard it may be
Ain't no way to go forward without it

Looking back isn't neccesary, no
I had to cut some things off because it's less to carry, yeah
Looking back isn't neccesary, no
