Abstract - Old Days Lyrics

[Verse 1: Duncan]
I tell myself it gets better as time passes
But I don't ever see myself getting past this
I think about it almost every single day
’Cause nobody thinks that I can make it happen
What I wanted was everything that I got
I came to peace with what I was and found my strength in what I'm not
There's a lot to learn in the earth, so be grateful for what you got
I’m grateful for my past and everything that it taught, yeah

[Pre-Chorus: Duncan]
I wish that I could take the timing back to what it was
But take the current me and leave behind the man I was
You say that life is difficult, man, I know that
But that's the price you pay when you decide to pave your own path
I never knew that I could get what I wanted
The second I started guessing to be the person I wanted
And if one day you all find me and you fear that I'm falling
Remind me who I was and not the things that I wanted

[Chorus]
Take me back to those older days
Not my older ways where I didn't know
Even if I'm underneath it all, I'll break my fall
When the waves come crashing over me, yeah
[Verse 2: Abstract]
Paint it relative, hurdle it, seem to grow with the jump
I swear, I thought I was ready—but don't we all, growin' up?
When you got time, swear time never move fast enough
Almost 25, thoughts are home running like, "batter up!"
’Cause the present is fleeting, and in a blink
I’ll be 85, lost in the mirror over a sink drip
Dripping out the faucet, time ticking 'til it’s exhausted
But if you take time, they can never say that you lost it

[Pre-Chorus: Duncan]
I wish that I could take the timing back to what it was
But take the current me and leave behind the man I was
You say that life is difficult, man, I know that
But that's the price you pay when you decide to pave your own path
I never knew that I could get what I wanted
The second I started guessing to be the person I wanted
And if one day you all find me and you fear that I'm falling
Remind me who I was and not the things that I wanted

[Chorus]
Take me back to those older days
Not my older ways where I didn't know
Even if I’m underneath it all, I'll break my fall
When the waves come crashing over me, yeah
