[Verse 1]
I used to run around the cul-de-sac
White sneakers and a Sunday dress
'Til my neighbor shot it down real quick
If only Julia was an optimist
Every time I wear my Sunday best
I’m always tryna fit the newest trend
Just to prove that I’m still relevant
Am I relevant?
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s funny how life can make amends
Through all the thick and thin
But in the end I know that’s just the way it goes
Just the way it goes
[Chorus]
I used to lie awake all night
Dream so high I’d never stop falling
Twenty-something, how’d the time fly by?
I hit the ground, I never did notice
Could someone tell me where I lost my stride?
Lost my sight? Oh, my soul’s been searching
Now I’m staring at a ceiling fan, going through the motions
[Verse 2]
My parents told me I was good enough
Said I was beautiful the way I was
But sometimes indecision has no end
And you can't help it when you second guess
Too young to love, too hard to trust
Need to grow up
Now you're 21 and you're asking dear
Where's your plus one?
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s funny how life can make amends
Through all the thick and thin
But in the end I know that’s just the way it goes
Just the way it goes
[Chorus]
I used to lie awake all night
Dream so high I’d never stop falling
Twenty-something, how’d the time fly by?
I hit the ground, I never did notice
Could someone tell me where I lost my stride?
Lost my sight? Oh, my soul’s been searching
Now I’m staring at a ceiling fan, going through the motions
[Outro]
Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground
This future's too bright for you to sit down
Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground
This future's too bright for you to sit down
Pick yourself up, feet off the ground
This future's too bright for you to sit down
Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground
This future's too bright for you to sit down
