Gang banger, ten years pa** Sneakin' smokes, skippin' cla** Instead of lunch, you're packin' heat Instead of friends, you make enemies Winds of change are blowin' strong What will we do when you're gone? You're growing up too fast Slow down or you might not last Take a look at what you're doin' Your life, you might ruin Doin' lines and barely twelve You've barely learned to love yourself Instead of hope, you're full of doom Sniffin' d** in the girls bathroom Winds of change are blowin' strong What will we do when you're gone -- when you're gone? You're growing up too fast Slow down or you might not last Take a look at what you're doin' Your life, you might ruin Who's to blame For all the choices that You make In this world we've made You're growing up too fast Slow down or you might not last Take a look at what you're doin' Your life, you might ruin You're growing up too fast (You're growing up too fast) You're growing up too fast (Way too fast now) You're growing up too fast (You gotta slow down) You're growing up too fast (Way too fast)
