Growing Up

There's a fight to be won for the love you find at home
There is work to be done before you rest your weary bones
I'm finding peace don't come to everyone I know
So I will love in this life till I finally have to go

Well I know I have lived just a wrinkle of my life
And I hear so many times, it'll be over when I blink twice
So please forgive if I don't walk off that plank stuck in your eye
I've got my life to love and I'm here to take what's mine

Growing up child is just a matter of time
Forgiven all you've got so won't you dance under the sun
Growing old feels like your giving up your soul
And I'd rather give it freely to the ones that I call home

I ain't scared no not afraid of the world in front of me
I found my way without your help with a broken family
I'll take my breaks with my sins, I'll do as I do please
With my friends till the end, there lies my loyalty
With my friends till the end, my lies their loyalty

I used to close my eyes to what stirred under my bed
Now they're open wide to the monsters in my head
Instead of claws they whisper lies, sinking fear in quiet steps
So I will fight in the light till i give my final breath
