Mama told me someday I'd be bigger
And everything in the world will come quicker.
Daddy told me to just enjoy right now
Complaining that I would never would slow down.
Now that I've grown, I thought I knew
But I'm just learning I haven't got a clue.
I feel so small when I step outside
There are millions like me, I realize.
When I turned 18, I could taste the freedom.
I get to make my own decisions.
Now the choices hit me in the face.
I don't know how to make them all today.
Now I'm asking for those days back again.
If only I could replace now and thens.
The freedoms nice, but not as nice as time.
There's not enough in a life, I realize.
Trading butterflies for heartbreaks
Blissful ignorance for mistakes
Bruises for first time wounds that run deep
Fireflies for city lights
Wishes for practicality
And fairytales for my own reailty
So tell me Lord how to fix this.
Will this ever get resolved?
Do I have a purpose?
Have you left me with a job?
I have so many questions,
But I only have so long.
I asked Lord how to fix this.
He answered with song.
