Getting Older
I've got some facial hair and faith in something
Does that mean I'm older?
Would you rather look your age or act your age is just a number?
My driver's license picture me had no idea's what's coming
When I retake it that will still be true
But I know more things than I did when I was 22
And now I'm 23 and live without a parent or my dudes
And that's a scary thing
Adulthood isn't everything they said
Responsibility is real but it's like I'm starting again
Red meat is making me feel bad
Didn't used to be like this
Tastes can change and strengths can wane
I'm learning that
Chases age with common phrase and some things are just permanent
Take each day like yesterday was promising a future gift
I promise that I will be honest today
I was born before 2000
Nowadays not everybody is
At my age I've already seen a shift
People around me are getting married
I know what they say is a virtue
But that's got me thinking 'bout time
It's hard to make friends when you're older
But that doesn't stop me from trying
Getting older means you spend your dollars
And drown your problems with dinners of steak and lobster
But if you eat too much meat it might just give you stomach problems
I went to a show and I joined the moshers, now my back is throbbing
Is this what growing up is like?
Just like the leaves the seasons change
Will I see my golden years or golden light?
Pray to God He guides my life because I've messed it up
Special K, it's extra fibrous with my prune juice
Changes from a little kid watching looney tunes
I'm standing 20 something but somebody lived to 92
Echoes from a future that I might not ever make it to
Things just faze me less, I'm getting older and i'm phasing through
Complacent through the days, I switched it up, started making moves
Don't wanna feel regret no matter what age that I skate into
Raising cane's like twice a day may not be what I need to do
Maybe I can make mistakes and make amends and make it through
Shaving with a razorblade, I never learned just how to do it
Pops already passed, my mama did just what she could do
Learned from early ages that there's lots of days that you can lose
So might as well just live em, that's all that you can really do
Might as well just live these days that's all the you can really do
Does that mean I'm older?
Would you rather look your age or act your age is just a number?
My driver's license picture me had no idea's what's coming
