Back to Back

Lyrics

[INTRO] We came from the shadows, two shadows in the light, Back‑to‑back, heartbeats in the storm. [VERSE 1] Broken windows, cheap coffee, the night never ends, Your mama left a scar on my soul, you got a war in your past. We traded secrets for cash, our love was a high‑stakes game, People whispered about us, but we laughed, we ran the flame. You said “I’m yours, I’m not yours,” I said “We’re the same,” In a world of broken hearts, we built our own damn frame. We hit the corner, we hit the bottle, we hit the road, We didn’t know where we’d go, but we never lost control. [CHORUS] We made it through the fire, we’re standing in the light, Back‑to‑back, we fight, we love, we shine. We’re not perfect, but we’re loyal, we’re true, we’re real, In a world of judgment, we keep our hearts sealed. [VERSE 2] We’ve seen betrayal in the mirror, we’ve felt the sting of lies, People prayed for our downfall, but we kept our heads up high. I’m still haunted by my past, your sins are still a scar, But we keep growing, keep forgiving, keep raising the bar. When the church bell rang, we were still in the dark, We had no faith, no God, but we found a spark. We built our own religion, in a corner of the city, In each other’s arms, we found a place to be. [BRIDGE] You’re my war partner, I’m your safe haven, In the storm, we’re the fire, we keep the flame alive. We’re walking into the light, we’re taking our chance, We’re not giving up, we’re in a holy trance. [CHORUS] We made it through the fire, we’re standing in the light, Back‑to‑back, we fight, we love, we shine. We’re not perfect, but we’re loyal, we’re true, we’re real, In a world of judgment, we keep our hearts
