Walking Away by Justin Bieber

In the song, the lyrics in the first verse went: “Days go by so fast, don't wanna spend them with you / so tell me why you're throwing stones at my back / You know I'm defenceless.”

The next few lines read, “And, girl, we better stop before we say some s*** / We've been testing our patience / I think we’re better off if we just take a break / And remember what grace is.”

He continues: “Baby, I ain’t walking away / You were my diamond, gave you a ring / I made you a promise, I told you I’d change / It’s just human nature, these growing pains / And baby, I ain’t walking away.”

Reacting to the song, a fan commented, “Best song on the album. Sounds like him 100%” A second fan said, “Walking Away already be my fav song of SWAG album by Justin Bieber! A truly game changer to goes from Pop to Old school R&B.” “He clocked all the haters with one song! Love it!” said another fan.
