Receipts & Retrospect

[Intro]
[Hook]
Check the title, check the plate
Everything is looking great
Bumping tracks they used to hate
Yeah, I finally pulled the weight
[Verse]
Rolling down 5th, yeah I’m back in the zone
Still got the numbers saved in my phone
Mrs. Miller said I’d never leave home
Now I’m sitting on a velvet throne
It’s a 2010 but the title is clear
No more debt and no more fear
I can see the finish line from here
Grinning in the dirty rearview mirror
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear that piano loop?
Spinning circles in a hula hoop
I was the girl in the chicken coop
Now I’m the leader of the whole troop
[Chorus]
It’s a long way back to the start
With a little bit of fire in my heart
Hear the demo spinning in the dark
Leave a little bit of glitter where I park
Yeah, we made it out the rain
Dancing through the localized pain
Got a lot of sunshine left to gain
Driving down the memory lane
[Post-Chorus]
Paid in full, baby
Looking kind of cool, baby
I’m nobody’s fool, baby
Back to school, baby
[Verse]
Remember the diner? The burnt coffee smell?
I was writing lyrics, doing it well
Becky told me that my demo wouldn't sell
Now I'm ringing every victory bell
I name-check the ghosts of the past
Moving way too smooth and fast
Built a little house that’s gonna last
Cast aside the shadow that they cast
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear that piano loop?
Spinning circles in a hula hoop
I was the girl in the chicken coop
Now I’m the leader of the whole troop
[Chorus]
It’s a long way back to the start
With a little bit of fire in my heart
Hear the demo spinning in the dark
Leave a little bit of glitter where I park
Yeah, we made it out the rain
Dancing through the localized pain
Got a lot of sunshine left to gain
Driving down the memory lane
[Bridge]
It’s not a diamond, it’s just a key
To the life that I wanted for me
Used to be a ghost, now I’m free
Exactly who I wanted to be
No more hiding in the back of the class
Watching all the lucky people pass
Now I’m stepping on the gas
Breaking through the looking glass
[Hook]
Check the title, check the plate
Everything is looking great
Bumping tracks they used to hate
Yeah, I finally pulled the weight
[Chorus]
It’s a long way back to the start
With a little bit of fire in my heart
Hear the demo spinning in the dark
Leave a little bit of glitter where I park
Yeah, we made it out the rain
Dancing through the localized pain
Got a lot of sunshine left to gain
Driving down the memory lane
[Outro]
