Almost grown about to leave the nest
Funny how you wanna grow up so fast
Looking back at the past like why didn't I just be patient? So much precious innocence, eager to be wasted
All just to say 'I'm a big boy now.' Not realizing what big boys do.
How they are.
No more wishing upon a star more like 'boy go get a job.'
No more 'ma I'm sick may I get some medicine? '
It's more like 'boy you better get some insurance.'
'Can't wait till I leave, she get on my nerves.' I say.
I can buy them new Js I heard,
Girls give it up easy showing their curves, and I
Can drink like a boss with no huss or
fuss from her.
But alas what would it all have gotten me?
Nothing but misery just a young man trying to hurry and see
The world but I have to open my mind before I climb that mountain
