[Intro]
Ahem, okay
[Verse 1]
It's funny how time got quicker as I got bigger, I can't
Tell you that it gets better and I'm not bitter; I am
'Cause I thought that I'd be seventeen for eternity
Well, that's on me, I'm just a boy tryna play a man, so
[Chorus]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) And I've been trying to
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) But I can't lie to you
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Because my cracks are shining through
And all my days have slipped away with all my youth
[Verse 2]
Every memory's one more thing I miss
And I get high 'cause time flies by so quick
But it just compounds the hurt
When I come back down to Earth
And I'm so burnt out tryna keep my fire lit
[Chorus]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) And I've been trying to
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) But I can't lie to you
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Because my cracks are shining through
And all my days have slippеd away with all my youth
[Outro]
Some days I wonder when I was youngеr
Would I be proud of me now?
Or am I a fossil in time? I wish I could try to be somebody else
And I try, I try, I try, but I'm running out of time
Some days I wonder when I was younger, would I?
