Lyrics
0:10If I could travel back into time
0:13I'd probably go sit in my spaceship
0:15The colorful lights on the inside
0:18To brighten my frown and faces
0:20Got the radio loud when it's in drive
0:23'Cause I ain't tryna hear frustrations
0:25I'm floatin' on clouds in the sky
0:28What an imagination
0:30I crank the engine up and take a trip to see stars
0:33Sit on top of the moon build a mansion on Mars
0:36Take me back to when I had no bandage and no scars
0:38'Member when I was a youngin wasn't stressin' at all
0:41Someone there to catch me every time that I fall
0:43Someone there with me at my every beck and call
0:46Way before you met me weren't no problems I could solve
0:48Swear that I would trade it all
0:49I'd go back in time in time
0:52I'll fly to another dimension
0:54To make this right this right
0:57Kill all this mental tension
0:59That makes me fight me fight
1:02It's the only way I know I'ma be alright tonight tonight
1:07Be alright I'd be alright
1:08If the butterfly effect only made this right
1:11Roll the window down when I'm up high
1:14Breath of fresh air when I'm flyin'
1:16You drive me crazy sometimes
1:18I'd rather sit alone in the silence
1:21But climb to my seat when I get tired
1:24Light somethin' up when I'm vibin'
1:26Floatin' on clouds in the sky
1:29Fall asleep under the horizon
1:31I crank the engine up and take a trip to see stars
1:34Sit on top of the moon build a mansion on Mars
1:36Take me back to when I had no bandage and no scars
1:39'Member when I was a youngin wasn't stressin' at all
1:41I would change the pieces to the puzzle where your heart
1:44If I could do it over take it back to what it was
1:46Back before we ever made mistakes from the start
1:49If I could only trade it all
1:50I'd go back in time in time
1:53I'll fly to another dimension
1:55To make this right this right
1:58Kill all this mental tension
2:00That makes me fight me fight
2:03It's the only way I know I'ma be alright tonight tonight
2:08Be alright I'd be alright
2:08If the butterfly effect only made this right
2:11Yeah I used to sit inside my room on the floor
2:14Uh
2:14Tryna build a fort and use a blanket as a door
2:16Yeah
2:16Cardboard boxes drawin' pictures on the board
2:18At them times I felt rich even though we was really poor
2:21True
2:21Imaginary friends niggas thought that I was nuts
2:23Uh
2:24But I was only ten and everyone was out of touch
2:26Yeah
2:26Dream about the Benz every time I caught the bus
2:28I used to watch the other kids and now them kids are watchin' us
2:31Uh
2:31But sometimes I feel like a butterfly with broken wings
2:34Yeah
2:34'Cause even if it's still flyin' it don't float the same
2:36Uh
2:37I often think about the past way before the fame
2:39And how I used to cope with pain and why a nigga overcame
2:41Yeah
2:42It's weighin' heavy on my skull
2:43Uh
2:43I wish I knew the pressure was so heavy for my soul
2:45Joyner
2:46If I could do it over I'd trade everything I own
2:48Take back everything I know
2:49If I could only trade it all
2:50I'd go back in time in time
2:54I'll fly to another dimension
2:56To make this right this right
2:59Kill all this mental tension
3:01That makes me fight me fight
3:04It's the only way I know I'ma be alright tonight tonight
3:08Be alright I'd be alright
3:09If the butterfly effect only let me
3:11Go back in time in time
3:14I'll fly to another dimension
3:16To make this right
3:17Yeah
3:18This right
3:19I'd kill all this mental tension
3:21That makes me fight me fight
3:24It's the only way I know I'ma be alright tonight tonight
3:28Be alright I'd be alright
3:29If the butterfly effect only made this right
If I could travel back into time I'd probably go sit in my spaceship The colorful lights on the inside To brighten my frown and faces Got the radio loud when it's in drive 'Cause I ain't tryna hear frustrations I'm floatin' on clouds in the sky What an imagination I crank the engine up and take a trip to see stars Sit on top of the moon build a mansion on Mars Take me back to when I had no bandage and no scars 'Member when I was a youngin wasn't stressin' at all Someone there to catch me every time that I fall Someone there with me at my every beck and call Way before you met me weren't no problems I could solve Swear that I would trade it all I'd go back in time in time I'll fly to another dimension To make this right this right Kill all this mental tension That makes me fight me fight It's the only way I know I'ma be alright tonight tonight Be alright I'd be alright If the butterfly effect only made this right Roll the window down when I'm up high Breath of fresh air when I'm flyin' You drive me crazy sometimes I'd rather sit alone in the silence But climb to my seat when I get tired Light somethin' up when I'm vibin' Floatin' on clouds in the sky Fall asleep under the horizon I crank the engine up and take a trip to see stars Sit on top of the moon build a mansion on Mars Take me back to when I had no bandage and no scars 'Member when I was a youngin wasn't stressin' at all I would change the pieces to the puzzle where your heart If I could do it over take it back to what it was Back before we ever made mistakes from the start If I could only trade it all I'd go back in time in time I'll fly to another dimension To make this right this right Kill all this mental tension That makes me fight me fight It's the only way I know I'ma be alright tonight tonight Be alright I'd be alright If the butterfly effect only made this right Yeah I used to sit inside my room on the floor Uh Tryna build a fort and use a blanket as a door Yeah Cardboard boxes drawin' pictures on the board At them times I felt rich even though we was really poor True Imaginary friends niggas thought that I was nuts Uh But I was only ten and everyone was out of touch Yeah Dream about the Benz every time I caught the bus I used to watch the other kids and now them kids are watchin' us Uh But sometimes I feel like a butterfly with broken wings Yeah 'Cause even if it's still flyin' it don't float the same Uh I often think about the past way before the fame And how I used to cope with pain and why a nigga overcame Yeah It's weighin' heavy on my skull Uh I wish I knew the pressure was so heavy for my soul Joyner If I could do it over I'd trade everything I own Take back everything I know If I could only trade it all I'd go back in time in time I'll fly to another dimension To make this right this right Kill all this mental tension That makes me fight me fight It's the only way I know I'ma be alright tonight tonight Be alright I'd be alright If the butterfly effect only let me Go back in time in time I'll fly to another dimension To make this right Yeah This right I'd kill all this mental tension That makes me fight me fight It's the only way I know I'ma be alright tonight tonight Be alright I'd be alright If the butterfly effect only made this right
