While I'm Young Songtext

von Buck 65

I'm leaving home
Left to my own devices
I've packed a bag of clothes
Doesn't matter what the price is
I'm a fly alone
Take a chance cause i can't sacrifice this
Opportunity to hold
All the things I've ever wanted since I started

And my pockets are full of books and strings
No, I don't need desirable things
I'm searching for the similarity
For release, for belief

This time I, I won't say goodbye
I'll get on the flight and go
I'll be fine, this time tomorrow
But I can't help but be reminded
I wasted my time but there's no surprises now
I've been waiting for too long

I need to drop the past and pick up what's left
Drop the past and pick up my life while I'm young

As the gates closed
Look to find the time, my place
Searched to find my row
Pulled my seatbelt to its tightest
With no bag below
My future feels it might be at its brightest
Though it might be moving slow
It's picking up some speed as both the tires lift

My pockets are full of books and strings
No, I don't need desirable things
I'm searching for the similarity
For release, for belief

This time I, I won't say goodbye
I'll get on the flight and go
I'll be fine, this time tomorrow
But I can't help but be reminded
I wasted my time but there's no surprises now
I've been waiting for too long
I need to drop the past and pick up what's left
Drop the past and pick up my life while I'm young

I'll ensure this plane won't ooze
I'll strip down to coffee and colors again
I'll ensure that we'll be covered in covers again

Drop the past and pick up what's left
Drop the past and pick up my life while I'm young

This time I, I won't say goodbye
I'll get on the flight and go
I'll be fine, this time tomorrow
But I can't help but be reminded
I wasted my time but there's no surprises now
I've been waiting for too long
I need to drop the past and pick up what's left
Drop the past and pick up my life while I'm young
