23

Slow burn, everybody's looking at me
Concerns, but I'm the only one that'll speak
I learned that hard work isn't for the weak
I head south where every other road was a blur
En route and everybody's trying to deter
The real me, 'cause they don't wanna see it
And I don't wanna be it

So I dropped it off and I don't wanna come back
Rearranged my whole life track
I thought I knew who I was gonna be
But I was 23 (And that's still a lot of life to live)
I dropped it off where all the big stars go
Double the fame, not even thirty years old
I knew it back when I was 23, the world was feeling free
And I'd be left alone

I'm twenty-five and I'm feeling kind of reckless
I'm late in life but I'm getting kind of restless
Still learning to how roll with the punches
Love without clutching
Look without touching
I feel alive but it's only when I'm breathless
I feel deprived but it's not because I'm jealous
It's the real me and they don't wanna see it
And I don't wanna be it

So I
So I
So I (I, I)
So I dropped it off and I don't wanna come back
Rearranged my whole life track
I thought I knew who I was gonna be
But I was 23 (And that's still a lot of life to live)
I dropped it off where all the big stars go
Double the fame, not even thirty years old
I knew it back when I was 23, the world was feeling free
And I'd be left alone

I dropped it off and I don't wanna come back (Not coming back)
Rearranged my whole life track (My whole life track)
I thought I knew who I was gonna be
But I was 23 (And that's still a lot of life to live)
I dropped it off where all the big stars go
Double the fame, not even thirty years old
I knew it back when I was 23, the world was feeling free
And I'd be left alone

Slow burn, everybody's looking at me
Concerns, but I'm the only one that'll speak
I learned that hard work isn't for the weak
