20s

I took the bullet, I hit the floor
I shoulda’ seen it coming, but I thought I’d made it through the door
High on the city, hooked on a dream
Tryna’ deny that I’m the kinda girl with her heart on her sleeve

Patience ain’t a virtue I possess
Something I wish I had time to address
I hope and pray to someone who will listen
That I figure my wait out this beautiful mess

Oh got a lesson to be learned an ego to be cleaned
With a little more honesty with a little more integrity
Got a bridge you need to burn and people to be more
Than a little bit careful of more than a little bit grateful for
That is what your 20s are for

Late nights in Soho, soaked in the scene
Somebody telling you, girl you better have a good plan B
Good luck and work hard, but stay in your lane
Wherever you end up, remember you’ve only got yourself to blame

Patience ain’t a virtue I possess
Something I hope I make time to address
I hope and pray to someone who will listen
That I figure my wait out this beautiful mess

Oh got a lesson to be learned an ego to be cleaned
With a little more honesty with a little more integrity
Got a bridge you need to burn and people to be more
Than a little bit careful of more than a little bit grateful for
That is what your 20s are for

Oh, that is what your 20s, oh that is what your 20s
Oh that is what your 20s, your 20s are for

That is what your whole damn life is for

Oh, lesson to be learned, ego to be cleaned
With a little more honesty with a little more integrity
Got a bridge you need to burn and people to be more
Than a little bit careful of, more than a little bit grateful for
That is what your whole damn life
