This is where I broke my wrist

Where I thought I could fly

Thinking I was Superman

So you know you can’t cry

Because I wanted to be just like them

And save my city from crime

I wanted to be just like them

Just like them

Just like them

Campbell’s chicken noodle soup

When you stay home from school

Remember watching MTV

When there was still music for you

Just a kid on Cholla Street

From my city built in the sand

My father said: You’ll be a man

Be a man

Be a man

I was born in 1994

I was born in 1994

I was, I was born in 1994

I guess Santa Claus is just not real

And Batman can’t fly

And nobody’s invencible

Because I know people die

I saw it on the news one day

When the towers fell down

September's not the same place now

Same place now

Same place

Now

Now tell me what you want to be

Because you grow up too fast

Cut my hair and sag my jeans

And never show up to class

Get ready 'cause it's time to leave

So pack up your bags

And go be who you wanna be

Wanna be

Wanna be

I was born in 1994

I was born in 1994

I was, I was born in 1994

My country tis of thee

Sweet land of liberty

My country tis of thee

Be who you want to be

My country tis of thee

Sweet land of liberty

My country

My country

My country

My

I was born in 1994

I was born in 1994

I was, I was born in 1994
