I'm growing up but finding out I'm stronger than I seemed
With ever day that's going by I'm falling in-between
Life until now was all that I could want
But that's not a reason why I should start to give up
A lesson never learned I'm still waking up at noon
Ill stop making up excuses it's a gift from me to you
Coming clean with all that I wanted to be
Ill make my own reality for myself and no ones else
Seventeen still so young but so naïve to believe that the world really cares about me
I've taken every step I've learned to sing every line I've read all that you've written trying not to fall behind
I'm not buying into all that I was taught
I never stepped in time and tried not to be caught
Every note I play has been played before
Finding out your life is worth more I knew before
Coming clean with all that I wanted to be
Ill make my own reality for myself and no ones else
Seventeen still so young but so naïve to believe that the world really cares about me
Choosing not to let this life ever take control I'll make a run for my self and never let my heart get old
Where I have been and who have I become I'll break this fucking habit before I become too numb
Doubting all I'm worth when my life is at it's best I'll speak my mind with every word belt it from my chest
Mom and dad don't understand I'm becoming a good man
made this path on my own persevere with my own plans
Coming clean with all that I wanted to be
Ill make my own reality for myself and no ones else
Coming clean with all that I wanted to be
Ill make my own reality for myself and no ones else
Seventeen still so young but so naïve to believe that the world really cares about me
