Tinashe - Our Time Down Here lyrics

You're growing up too fast they said But I don't want to live my life like them And I just want to think about tonight Because the past is my ghost Let's meet up in a shady part of town Where they don't want to see us lose Our crowns because we're kings to them Well I don't think we're kings of anything (No I don't think we're kings of anything) Sneak out to the rooftop scene Surrounded by such evil things I won't admit this but I hate it here And what they don't know Is that the place they told me I should never go Was the place I learned to love the most What they don't know Is just something they forgot when they grew old You have to fall before you grow So I'll say thanks for the advice The choice is mine to make tonight I'd rather do this on my own than fall right into place And we will never be alive If we don't learn to live our lives I'll run in circles till I die Rather than have to retrace your lines I am so sorry if you think I didn't need you But my heart has never lost a place for you I just got tired of the way you stopped my movement All I ever truly wanted was to live And what they don't know Is that the place they told me I should never go Was the place I learned to love the most And what they don't know Is just something they forgot when they grew old (You have to fall) You have to fall before you grow (Before you grow) x3 And after all you have to fall before you grow
