lyrics

Been on the outside looking in
Building up walls to box you all in
Cause you can keep your hype, stereotypes
And lies you tell yourselves
Just to get by
Personally, I think it’s hard enough
Just being nineteen
Personally, I think it’s hard enough
Just being me

I don’t wanna belong
I just wanna be strong enough
To either sink or swim on my own
And I guess it’s safe to say
The latest trends
Weren't meant for me

Been battered and broken for so long
And though it’s a cliché
My friends are what kept me strong
I’ve been blinded by
Expectations and lies
Cause you what fail to realize
Is that
I’m only a kid
With hopes and dreams
That may never happen
(And I've learned to live with it)
Limited by the limitations of being human

Listen up, listen up
Maybe next time
You’ll smarten up
When I say you’re
Not worth my time
Maybe next time you’ll realize

It’s hard enough just being nineteen
