Whole life spent
Walking on a tightrope everywhere I went
Almost lost my balance, let me catch my breath
Oh I can't believe that I'm 23
Can't let the past catch up to me
So I said "farewell" to my innocence
And "goodbye" to my time
"Hello" to the money, got Ben Frank up on my line

And he calls me more than anyone
I'll take it as a sign
That I should pack my bags
And leave this whole city behind

I'm growing up
And I'm going up
I'm growing up
'Bout 2-3 seconds from crashing out
23 miles on the samе old route
23 years and I won't get youngеr
Just my luck I'm... (fuck)
I'm 23 and up

Like finally
Mom and Dad are you proud of me?
I haven't called in weeks
Both my phones on DND
And I wish we spent more time
Is it way too late to try?
If I drove 1000 miles would it change your mind?
Or would you kick me out again and say I wasted time?
Would you see the changes that I made to make you smile?
All I know is how to let you down
I'll take it as sign
That I should pack my bags
And leave this whole city behind

I'm growing up
And I'm going up
I'm growing up
'Bout 2-3 seconds from crashing out
23 miles on the same old route
23 years and I won't get younger
Just my luck I'm... (fuck)
I'm growing up
And I'm going up
I'm growing up
'Bout 2-3 seconds from crashing out
23 miles on the same old route
23 years and I won't get younger
Just my luck I'm... (fuck)
I'm 23 and up
