Are We Gonna Make It? (Retrospective)

I guess I'm a real man now
Living with a roommate
The kid's name is Stress
Is this how it has to be?

So much is good here
But so much is fear
Saying, "You're not gonna make it"
Am I gonna make it?

God help me
My sandbox was safe but this wilder life
Will I be alright?

It's a jungle out here
And it's every man for himself
This is the real world and we're at the bottom
Are we gonna make it?
It's relentless out here
We're a really long way from home
We asked for freedom and got it
But with it we got this responsibility

We've been waiting for this all our lives
Now it's all about the hustle, the due dates
No field trips or field day
Do real men ever have fun?

So much is good here
But so much is fear
Saying, "You're not gonna make it"
Am I gonna make it?

It's a jungle out here
And it's every man for himself
This is the real world and we're at the bottom
Are we gonna make it?
It's relentless out here
We're a really long way from home
We asked for freedom and got it
But with it we got this responsibility

Feels like we're in over our heads
Are we gonna make it?
We thought we were more than just kids
Are we gonna make it?
Feels like we've been left on our own
Are we gonna make it?
We came out here looking for home
Have we found it yet?
Is this really it?

It's a jungle out here
And it's every man for himself
This is the real world and we're at the bottom
Are we gonna make it?
It's relentless out here
We're a really long way from home
We asked for freedom and got it
But with it we got this responsibility

It's a jungle out here
But we'll never be by ourselves
'Cause this is your world
So help us remember that we're gonna make it
