10K Hours

Every now and then I wonder why I spend time following the crowd
They say time is valuable so we spend it in school cause they tell us that's how
You build your career like we're the ones who steer but I'm wasting my days
I'd rather get a head start and listen to my heart but I'm afraid of change

I know I'm not the only one feels like they're not where they belong
Waiting to make the world my stage but I can't because of my age
It's time to put the books away

I don't wanna stay in school cause I'd be better off
Putting in 10, 000 Hours doing what I love
No, I don't wanna stay in school cause I'd be better off
Putting in 10, 000 Hours doing what I love

Oh and if I stay what difference will it make?
It's a shame degrees don't take a couple days
All the time I've lost, tying myself in knots
Sitting wondering what's the opportunity cost?
If I left, what if I fall off track?
People telling me make sure you've got a fallback
It's a risk that I'm willing to take
It could be the best mistake that I ever made

I know I'm not the only one feels like they're not where they belong
Waiting to make the world my stage but I can't because of my age
It's time to put the books away

I don't wanna stay in school cause I'd be better off
Putting in 10, 000 Hours doing what I love
No, I don't wanna stay in school cause I'd be better off
Putting in 10, 000 Hours doing what I love
