Dear forefathers, tell me, what would you say
If I told you I had it, I told you I’d throw it away?
Would you rewrite it all?
Would you sign your John Hancock’s too?

I told my mother that it was time for a change
I dropped out of college. I quit that old minimum wage
And she said “son you can run away, but it will catch up to you.”
I said “mom I’m not running. I just need to start over new.”
So dear forefathers, tell me, what would you do?
