It seems like only yesterday
That bike riding, ninja turtles and grape kool-aid were day to day
But it's been so many years and a few things have changed
And I'm fortunate that I'm still here
I used to think that graduation, starting college, finding love, growing up, getting jobs, getting married, and having kids
Was something that I would never do
And honestly I haven't started yet
But I see it all around me, and it's scary
And I don't want to face the truth that maybe one day
I'll grow up and be a man
And it makes me think of that beach boys song
Because I can only be young once
And I'd hate to think that I could get that wrong
So what do I do with my time left
Because I'm certainly not getting younger by any standards
But I'm hardly growing older, definately not growing up
So what am I, who am I, and who will I become
Will I be a good man, good to those I meet. good to those I know
Nineteen, twenty
Will I live my dreams, the ones from childhood
The ones from today and ones yet to come
Twenty-one
Will I have a full life with love all around, with nothing to want
Twenty-two, twenty-three
But what if I fall short, what if I don't make it, what can I fall back on
Who will be there for me
And who will be there for you
