CHRIS JOHNSON lyrics : "Young Ft Esar"
(Chorus)
When I was young
I was told
Grow up boy
World is a better place now x2
Back when we were young
We were told all this going to be ok
No more corruption
No more crying
We were told no more pain
It was only later I understood
The power of the world
The power that can make anybody say your words
Look at us now
We are all grown up
Nobody can tell us lies no more
Its all about the money
Now its all about the brand name
It all depends if you can afford the Cristal Brut Champagne
Now look at all these
All our brothers fighting overseas
Is this what we really want?
We in fancy restaurants
All the peeps I been against
I keep hoping they be blessed
All the people I connect
I just hope they don't neglect
Every riser got a hater
Your life only gets harder
It will have ups and downs
We the youngsters
We the youngsters
And you can tell me one more time
That there ain't going to be any war or fights
But I have grown up to believe its the way of life
And you can tell me one more time
That there aint going to be any crimes or corruption
But I have grown up to believe its the circle of life
(Chorus)
When I was young
I was told
Grow up boy
The world is a better place now x2
Your life is going to be so mean
When you're going to need a friend indeed
If you still have the greed
They're going to leave
You're not going to get what you need
And you never thought
That its going to be so hard
When you're going to be so lonely
All the tough times that we had in our life
Never know when we're going to make it right
All the puzzles will fit together
When we grow up to be stronger
We so happy full of pride
We running through this joyful ride
Everything in our life just changes
As we pass through ages
But then we do realize
That those happy moments don't just stay for life
Things that I didn't care for then
Nowadays are stuff that I pay attention
Loving my life like it should be
But inside I'm burning full of heat
The people around you never ever lied
They used to sit and just play with your mind
(Chorus)
When I was young
I was told
Grow up boy
The world is a better place now
