John Mayer - Born and Raised lyrics

Now and then I pace my place
I can't retrace how I got here
I cheat the light to check my face
It's slightly harder than last year

But all at once it gets hard to take
It gets hard to fake what I won't be
Because one of these days I'll
Be born and raised
And it’s such a waste to grow up lonely

I still have dreams, they’re not the same
They don’t fly as high as they used to
I saw my friend, he's in my head
And he said, "You don’t remember me do you?"

But all at once it gets hard to take
It gets hard to fake what I won't be
Because one of these days I'll
Be born and raised
And it’s such a waste to grow up lonely

Still got time, still got faith
I call on both of my brothers
Got a mom, got a dad
But they do not have each other

So line on up and take your place
Show your face to the morning
Because one of these days you’ll be
Born and raised and it
All comes up without warning
