Lyrics

Intro

(Say it again)

Yesterday had me

Today don't

Chorus

Today don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Bass hit) Yeah yeah don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Don't) Today don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Bass hit) Yeah yeah don't

Yesterday had me today don't

Verse 1

One more rep than I pulled at noon

Half a second faster climb

Cleaner form when I drop the weight

Better lungs on the final grind

Yesterday I stopped at ten

Today I pushed to twelve before the shake

Yesterday I walked the line

Today I cut the corner wide awake

Pre-Chorus

Every session's a rematch

Same man but a harder watch

I ain't racing they lane

I'm chasing my own shadow again

Chorus

Today don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Bass hit) Yeah yeah don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Don't) Today don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Bass hit) Yeah yeah don't

Yesterday had me today don't

Verse 2

Tighter grip on that heavy set

Sharper breath when the burn sets in

Yesterday's excuse got left in the dust

Today I show up and I win within

Same floor same plates same corner room

But the man who stands here earned the view

Yesterday's pace was the only lead

And today I beat that man by two

Pre-Chorus

Every session's a rematch

Same man but a harder watch

I ain't racing they lane

I'm chasing my own shadow again

Chorus

Today don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Bass hit) Yeah yeah don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Don't) Today don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Bass hit) Yeah yeah don't

Yesterday had me today don't

Bridge

(Who you fighting)

The man I was at dawn

(Who you beating)

The pace I left and gone

(One more)

Cleaner and a little stronger

(Hear the bass)

Yesterday don't hold me no longer

Chorus

Today don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Bass hit) Yeah yeah don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Don't) Today don't

Yesterday had me today don't

(Bass hit) Yeah yeah don't

Yesterday had me today don't
