“​past life” is a song by ​Ariana Grande, released in 2025 as part of the ​deluxe version of her album “eternal sunshine”. It is a song in which Ariana gets ahold of herself, and decides to leave, even if it means leaving someone in her past life. The song shows us Ariana’s shift in ideas about her former couple: from being her “medicine” to “code blue.” It’s a way of packing up and saying goodbye, allowing us to leave that person in our past life.

past life lyrics

Woke up with a ghost by my side
Kissed by the passing of time, time
A moth to a flame, I didn't think, I just flew
I just didn't wanna change my mind (mind), mind
Rhythms of the night consume my body
Just let the music confiscate my soul
You think I'm lost, but that's just how you found me
Well, maybe I'm no stranger after all
Always wondered what would happen if I let you lose me
Always wondered what would happen if I let myself need more
Might fuck around and elevate my expectations
Now I'm (I'm) fine (fine) to leave you in a past life
Yeah, I'm (I'm) fine (fine) to leave you in the past life
Phased me just like the moon (ah, ooh)
I used to think you were the medicine, but you were just code blue
And you're thinking it too, and I already knew (I knew)
I just didn't want to waste my time
Rhythms of the night consume my body
Just let the music confiscate my soul (confiscate my soul)
You think I'm lost, but that's just how you found me
Well, maybe I'm no stranger after all
Always wondered what would happen if I let you lose me (let you lose me)
Always wondered what would happen if I let myself need more
Might fuck around and elevate my expectations (expectations)
Now I'm (I'm) fine (fine) to leave you in a past life (said, baby, I'm)
Yeah, I'm (I'm) fine (fine) to leave you in the past life
Somethin' just to save me
Just to confiscate my body, my soul (confiscate my soul)
You think I'm lost, but that's just how you found me
Maybe I am no stranger after all (I'm no stranger after all)
Always wondered what would happen if I let you lose me (let you lose me)
Always wondered what would happen if I let myself need more
Might fuck around and elevate my expectations (my expectations)
Now I'm (I'm) fine (fine) to leave you in a past life (oh, baby, I'm)
Yeah, I'm (I'm) fine (fine) to leave you in the past life
Somethin' just to save me
Somethin' just to save me
Ah, ah
Somethin' just to save me
Somethin' just to save me
Ah, ah
