[Verse 1]
As a kid I used to think the world owed me so much sh**
Robbed of a childhood I never got no loving
Mom hungover or drunk again, bullies used to throw punches
Didn't want to grow up in a life that said "so what, kid?"
So as I got older I got a lot colder
Pot smoker, loner, not sober
I'd self-medicate to help elevate my mental state
Didn't hesitate to smoke to generate some better days
Time was moving forward but I was on some backward sh**
Just trying to get high and do the stuff I couldn't as a kid
School was easy, being blasted I still pa**ed that b**h
The only thing that puzzled me was trying to find an acid trip
What I never factored in was Zakk's piss was never clean
Because all my d** were on fire like Katniss Everdeen
But f** a job, that's my least concern
The only thing I cared about was having weed to burn
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
Flat broke but had to smoke I sat home everyday
While all the kids I saw were getting jobs and getting paid
But I was getting laid which to me is so much better so
What the hell would I want to put forth any effort fo?
Grow up? Nah, I'll just watch Cartoon Network Shows
Adult Swim's the closest to maturity I'll ever go
And Nicktoons has '90s Are All That
So why worry about applying and callbacks?
Didn't want to face the sh**, just wanted to stay a kid
Peter Pan I hate that prick, I never flew away with him
Because the clock keeps ticking time to face that it's the way it is
Friends are growing up, guess I'll take the hint
Because not everything in life you do is what you wanted to
You gotta push through and do what you gotta do
I'm realizing that now, I hope I'm not too late
I'm sorry that I took so long I was afraid but I'll change
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
So I got up off my a**, had lost control, I got it back
Caught up fast, dropped the past, off the pity pot at last
Life is all I have, to spend it b**hing would be such a waste
Yeah I was afraid but it's just time for me to come of age
Because I'm older don't mean life's over
Not a stoner, sober, got closure
Now my pee is free of THC and I volunteer
Seems 2015's bound to be an awesome year
My girl and I are broken up, I didn't say it's perfect
But I'm still growing up I finally got my permit
I'm looking for a job and like me it's not working
But that ain't no reason to give up and stop searching
Everyone wants to stay a kid, that's a fact of life
But life is what you make of it, you age a bit, that's the price
As a kid I used to think the world owed me so much
Now I know I owe it, I'm growing up
