[Verse 1]
My momma used to sing me lullabies
She told me baby won't you close your eyes
I have never felt more alive
[Refrain]
Self-doubt and hatred, that sh** came later
[Chorus]
I wish I was a kid
Running through the streets
I wish I was a kid
Playing hide and seek
We didn't know sh** back then
I wish I was a kid again
When things were fun
I wish I was a kid (I wish)
I wish I was a kid (wish)
I wish I was a kid (I wish)
I wish I was a kid
[Verse 2]
Wanted to grow up counting every day
Now going back would make it all OK
No one told us it would be this way
[Refrain]
Self-doubt and hatred, always impatient
[Chorus]
I wish I was a kid
Running through the streets
I wish I was a kid
Playing hide and seek
We didn't know sh** back then
I wish I was a kid again
When things were fun
I wish I was a kid (I wish)
I wish I was a kid (wish)
I wish I was a kid (I wish)
I wish I was a kid
[Hook]
All the anxiety in men
I wanna breathe again
I wanna breathe again
Don't want your pity men
I still know who I am
We just get lost sometimes
I wish I was a kid (I wish)
I wish I was a kid (wish)
I wish I was a kid (I wish)
I wish I was a kid
[Outro]
I wish I was a kid
I wish I was a kid
I wish I was a kid
