lyrics

I got older again
Watched a day, turn a week, turn a month, turn a year
Turn to all these friends
And I know where the time went
Because I’ve been everywhere I wanted to be
And I believe there’s so much left to see

I can see it coming now I don’t want to wait
But I’ll sit still until it’s safe out
I was scared when everything changed
But I still put on my face
Sometimes I thought the music was dead
But I don’t know what I would do instead

White guilt in one hand
And the other balled up to help them understand
All the racial justice, prison systems, Karl Marx and communism
Health care incentivism, Jesus Christ, and Judaism
Donald Trump and Joseph Biden
Same shit different side and
I don’t care about your flavor
I’ll just be a better neighbor

I can see it coming now I don’t want to wait
But I’ll sit still until its safe out
I was scared when everything changed
But I still put on my face
Sometimes I thought the music was dead
But I don’t know what I would do instead

All things grow old
But only some things grow up

I’ve got just one more thought
All the science, math, and social studies
Can’t nobody trust nobody
Fractured people can’t do better
I just want to be together

I can see it coming now I don’t want to wait
But I’ll sit still until its safe out
I was scared when everything changed
But I still put on my face
Sometimes I thought the music was dead
But I don’t know what I would do instead

All things grow old
(See it coming now I
don’t want to wait but I’ll)
But only some things grow up
(But I still put on my face)

Sometimes I thought the music was dead
But I don’t know what I would do instead
