Hard To Grow Up
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I wake up feeling crazy
Keep losing people, just lost my mom
So difficult to fathom that they're gone
I could go out and party
But nothing kills my pain
So helpless and there's no one I can blame
And it's hard to grow
Hard to grow up, grow up
Hard to grow
Hard to grow up, grow up
Yeah
Planning for tomorrow
But living day-to-day
Playing hard has always been my way
Now, many things are changing
And still they stay the same
But now my life is much more than I gained
Don't you know, it's so
Hard to grow
Hard to grow up, grow up
Hard to grow
Hard to grow up, grow up
Hard to grow
Hard to grow up, grow up
Carefree day
Feeling left far, far away
How do we end this story, my friend?
How does it end this story, my friend?
How do we end this story, my friend?
Hard to grow
Hard to grow up, grow up
Hard to grow
Hard to grow up, grow up
Show up, show up
So hard to grow up
Yeah
