[Chorus]
When I grow up
I want to be young
Heard you got love
Can I get some?
Hook me up a fresh start
I wish I could say
I wish I could warn
Warn myself
Before I was born
Give myself a head start

[Verse 1]
Rob me of my innocence
Leave me with the consequence
Tell me that I'm out of my mind
And I've been to hell and back again
But everyone still acts the same
Have you seen the world is on fire?

[Chorus]
When I grow up
I want to be young
Heard you got love
Can I get some?
Hook me up a fresh start
I wish I could say
I wish I could warn
Warn myself
Before I was born
I'd give myself a head start

[Post-Chorus]
When I grow up, yeah
When I grow up, hmm

[Verse 2]
Forward never looking back
I don't try to hide the cracks
All my bad decisions
Leave 20/20 vision
And home is where I hang my hat
In the Cape sun on my back
Been locked down but still fighting
And I hope you're by my side
[Chorus]
When I grow up
I want to be young
Heard you got love
Can I get some?
Hook me up a fresh start
I wish I could say
I wish I could warn
Warn myself
Before I was born
I'd give myself a head start

[Post-Chorus]
When I grow up, yeah
I want to find peace now, baby, it's on
When I grow up, yeah (Hmm)
Nothing less and nothing more
When I grow up, yeah
I hope you find peace now, baby, come on
When I grow up, hmm
Nothing less and nothing more

[Bridge]
(Rob my of innocence)
Rob my of innocence
(Tell me that I'm out of my mind)
Tell me that I'm out of my mind
(Been to hell and back again)
And I've been to hell and back again
(Have you seen the world is on fire?)
Have you seen the world is on fire?
[Chorus]
When I grow up
I want to be young
Heard you got love
Can I get some?
Hook me up a fresh start
(Have you seen the world is on fire?)
I wish I could say
I wish I could warn
Warn myself
Before I was born
I'd give myself a head start

[Post-Chorus]
When I grow up, yeah
I want to find peace now, baby, it's on
When I grow up, yeah (Hmm)
Nothing less and nothing more
When I grow up, yeah
I hope you find peace now, baby, come on
When I grow up, hmm
Nothing less and nothing more

[Outro]
When I grow up, yeah
When I grow up
