Juke - Grown-Ups lyrics
[Hook] I know that one day We will go away to somewhere Where no one will stare and say "Hey, what you doing here, boy?" [Verse 1] Whoa I know that one day We will go away And we'll never have to look back And so goes my story A story of the never-ending quest for glory Surely, I'm gonna make it out alive With you by my side Nothing in my heart but pride, but now Don't get twisted, I'll always be a kid inside But don't expect me stride out all tough and upside down Yeah I'm gonna stunt a crown, all uptown, in my royal gown But slow down, let ourselves get rewound It's a little too soon to be thinking that far down I don't want to be a grown-up just yet I mean, how much better could being a kid get? [Hook] [Verse 2] Keeping with the theme I wanna stay forever fifteen Indeed, I need, to feel young They always tend to think, "the youth is screwed!" f** you, you're just a motherf**ing scrooge Dude, you're f**ing up my mood I'm trying to write about the wonderful essence of adolescence But now you're testing my patience, face it I'm not ready for life, so hold on Let me figure out my route, to get out my mom's house So filled with doubt Hoping to God that my life sets itself out Ha, yeah, but no, no one deals with your problems but you I've always relied on other people to do, that for me But now facing the sh** I've done is f**ing scary [Hook] [Verse 3] The fact of the matter is Life is scary I shouldn't have to worry about who I'm going to marry If she's right, if she's wrong If this dude looks good in a thong "Yes he does", but dude, there's just so much buzz around Who to be, what people want to see in me So much that it drives me crazy I can't live in this world Where people just rely on me To be some monstrous conformity Is that so wrong? Am I a rebel if don't wanna look like you or you or you So with that in mind I wanna know what you wanna do With your life, do you wanna just go crazy for tonight Man I just want to go crazy on the mic This is my time, our time, I just wanna seize it I want to lose my self in the moment, I wanna own it Being a kid s**s, don't it? [Hook] [Verse 4] Okay, so I promise, this is the last verse I know listening to me babble on about my life hurts But bear with me See I just want to make it clear that I'm not depressed… I don't know, I guess I'm just stressed I mean it always feels like me versus the universe Wait, it gets worse I feel like my body is a hearse With life, I just go through the motions There's no emotion But I feel like people are getting some crazy notion That I'm gonna go jump off a building "I'm not", so chill the f** out Now I couldn't decide where I wanted to hide So I thought, Hey, I'll bring all to you bullsh** free So listeners can know the real me And so I hope this song This verse, this album Has a positive outcome And people understand Just a little bit more about who I am And why I'm all silent like a lamb WHAT [Hook]
