2018

I saw you in the back of my show last night
Standing underneath the exit sign
I know it wasn't really you, though
'Cause you were always in the front row

And I've been lookin' for love online
And maybe some of them are real good guys
They're never gonna be like you, though
You set the bar above the moon, so

I don't wanna be 20-something
And still in my head about
17, in my bedroom talkin'
You said that by now, we'd
Paint the walls of our shared apartment
You're still everything I want, and
I think wе could work it out
So what are you doin' now?

Now that you finally got the job you like
I'm makin' monеy off the songs I write
I know you said that I could call you
I wonder if you wanna call too

Now that the future doesn't feel so far
It doesn't seem as wrong to want what's ours
And after everything that's happened
I wanna put it in the past tense

'Cause I don't wanna be 20-something
And still in my head about
17, in my bedroom talkin'
You said that by now, we'd
Paint the walls of our shared apartment
You're still everything I want, and
I think we could work it out
So what are you doin' now?

Look, uh
My tongue get twisted, and I don't know what to say
Should've picked up the phone, but my pride got in the way
Only 19 and we was in and out of state
By the time I turned 20, I was openin' up for Gates

And before the money, we had everything
Should've took you out the country, but was scared of planes
All the- I came in the game with
Either faded or they still on the same-

But Noonie, he lane-switched to arena tours, marble floors
Gave my life to my dream, but my heart was yours
Youngin' made it out the trenches, really went the distance
Something they can't ignore

Rappers pretend to be friends, but they really wanna pass me
"Wave, let's do a song," that's the first thing they ask me
Jumbotron jumpin' like I came off Degrassi
Twenty million dollar mansion like an athlete

But my house ain't a home 'cause I'm in it alone
Couldn't right my wrongs, so I was writin' songs
Such a successful life, but my heart is gone
Waitin' for you to call my phone, 'cause I don't

I don't wanna be 20-something
And still in my head about
17 in my bedroom talkin'
You said that by now, we'd
Paint the walls of our shared apartment
You're still everything I want, and
I think we could work it out
So what are you doin' now?
