Growing Up

I'm all out
Down to my last dime gonna be a close one now

Another face in the crowd
On to the next one gotta make it out somehow

Everybody so loud
Leaning on me yeah I'm just tryna break free
I'm buckling under the pressure
I got 'em pressing me pressing me down
Pressing me pressing me down

Here we go again
Getting even harder to get up get out of bed yeah

Head up under water
Sink or swim they said
Floating on hope waiting on a lifeboat like
All my life
All my life
On hope stepping off of that ledge like

Spread your wings
Ride the wind
Free fall til
You start flying
I can't live
Life trapped in
That rat race renegades can't win
Daydreaming got me thinking about when
Remember how it felt like anything was possible then?
Way back when I was young and
Singing in my hairbrush to my favorite song on the radio

When I grow up
I believe that
Picture me like
Growing up yeah
Growing up yeah

Graduate
Get a job
Buy a house
Get a Car
Marry well
Pay it off
It'll all pay off one day
So they say
Everybody, Everybody go that way but

Now you're drowning in debt
Slaving away 9 to 5
Guess the American dream is scraping by til you die
Slipping over the edge on bottom rocks way down
If they don't see you fall then would it still make a sound?

All my life
All my life
Will I ever be found?

Spread your wings
Ride the wind
Free fall til you start flying
I can't live life trapped in
That rat race renegades can't win
Daydreaming got me thinking bout when
Remember how it felt like anything was possible then?
Way back when I was young and
Singing in my hairbrush to my favorite song on the radio

When I grow up
I believe that
Picture me like
Growing up yeah
Growing up yeah

Don't wanna look back in the day
Back in day when you were kids
And regret all the things that you said you'd do
But never did

I don't wanna grow up
I don't wanna grow up
I don't wanna grow up
I don't wanna grow up

All my life
All my life
And I know that I'm gonna survive

Spread your wings
Ride the wind
Free fall til
You start flying
I can't live life trapped in
That rat race renegades can't win
Daydreaming got me thinking bout when
Remember how it felt like anything was possible then?
Way back when I was young and
Singing in my hairbrush to my favorite song on the radio

Back in the day when I was young
I'm not a kid anymore
But some days
You know I wish I was a kid again
