Witt Lowry - Youth lyrics

Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun

I graduated Magna Cum Laude
What does that mean?
I'm still stuck payin' Sallie
Mae the next sixteen years of my life
And is it me or does that not seem right?
See I just wanna go back to
Playin' tag and ridin' my bike damn life
Now could you tell me when
Did you get so hard?
I remember my biggest worry
Were my Pokémon cards
I put a lemonade stand right at
The edge of my yard that seemed so far
But now I hear there may be life on Mars
Yo, and it seems like just yesterday
Jim was at my house sayin'
"Could Mark come out to play?"
Now we're both over school guess a
Real world on it's way
It's crazy how we go through life
And take for granted each day
But hey things change, and people change
And that's just a part of life don't
Believe it will stay the same
Love with everything you got and
Don't anticipate the pain
Because today is the day your
Whole world could just… change

Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun

Look how much can change in a year
You gain love, you lose love
You go and outdo your peers
And never being relevant
I thinks my number one fear
So when I leave this earth I
Hope you all remember me here
I'm screaming, "Fuck it, I'm young"
'cause I'm drunk and when I'm drinking
I pretend like I just give no fucks
You see I rarely drink but stress
Got my cup filled up
Puke out my lunch and now the
Only way I look is dumb
Yo, since when does alcohol equal happiness
Know a couple people started drinkin'
Ain't been happy since
When we were just kids
We would never need a substance
Used to love the party
Now I realize that don't mean shit
Fake friends and girls change
Like nickels and dimes
This girl is telling you she loves
You then changing her mind
Just make your every moment precious
Because soon you will find
You're buying clothes, cars, and diamonds
But you can't buy time

Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
Don't tell me our youth is running out
It's only just begun
