Remember This

Yeah they say when we grow
You’ll understand when you’re older
Guess I’m still a kid I don’t know it
If I’ll ever let go of this
Say good-bye to the old me
We’re not friends anymore you don’t know me
I know I could die any moment
If I do just remember this

Hand outs create lazy people I’m not impressed with
You want something in life, then why don’t you go and get it?
Actions speak louder than words do, its pretty quiet, isn’t it?
Look at the world we live in, defined by comment sections
Surround yourself by people that challenge how you think
Not like people that nod their head and act like they agree
Those people that cut you open just to watch you bleed
Always be yourself not the person that you pretend to be
These people gon’ tell you that you’ll never make it
Then when you do they gon’ say they knew you were goin’ places
That’s just how it works, next thing you know you’ll be overrated
Hearing people say they miss the old you, it’s crazy ain’t it?
And perfect people don’t exist so don’t pretend to be one
I don’t need pats on the back from people for my achievements
When I die I wanna know that I live for a reason
Anyone can take your life, but not what you believe in

Yeah they say when we grow
You’ll understand when you’re older
Guess I’m still a kid I don’t know it
If I’ll ever let go of this
Say good-bye to the old me
We’re not friends anymore you don’t know me
I know I could die any moment
If I do just remember this

Don’t take opinions from people that won’t listen to yours
And moneys where you find happiness you’ll always be poor
If you don’t like the job you have then what you do it for
The cure to pain isn’t something you buy at liquor stores, nah
The real you is not defined by the size of your watches
The real you is who you are when ain’t nobody watchin’
You spend your whole life worried about what’s inside your wallet
For what? That money won’t show up in your coffin
Your angers a liar he ain’t got no respect
I fell in love with my pain and I suffer my regrets
Happiness saw it happen, that’s maybe why she up and left
Joy called me a cheater said she ain’t coming back
I’ve always had a problem with relationships
But that’s what happens when you see the world through a broken lens
Mistakes can make you grow that doesn’t mean your friends
Who you are is up to you don’t leave it up to them

Yeah they say when we grow
You’ll understand when you’re older
Guess I’m still a kid I don’t know it
If I’ll ever let go of this
Say good-bye to the old me
We’re not friends anymore you don’t know me
I know I could die any moment
If I do just remember this

They say you got into music
You signed up to be hated
That’s kinda weird cause I don’t remember signing my name up
Coming from people that give advice but never take none
I like my privacy but lately I feel it’s invaded
I heard that life’s too short, don’t let it pass you by
We waste a lot of time crying over wasted time
It’s not about what people think, it’s how you feel inside
My biggest failures in life are knowing I never tried
I look at the world from a different angle
People change, even Satan used to be an angel
Think twice before you bitin’ on the hand that made you
Don’t believe what you believe just ‘cause that’s how they raised you
Think your own thoughts, don’t let them do it for you
Say you want a drink for you, don’t wait for people to pour it on you
Cut out the lies, stay close to the people you know are loyal
Grab your own glass and fill it, don’t let your fear destroy you
