Aku - Younger Yesterday Lyrics

Sleeping in
Thank goodness it's the weekend
Responsibility is looking slim
That work I got
I'm over it
The high is feeling so divine
Hope when it goes it's on my time
No, I can't do much about decline
That's fine
Washing whiskey down with wine
Late nights
Drinking more than enough
Chase my drink with a puff
Yeah, I'll try all of the stuff
Guess I don't know much about love
Just a thing or two on having fun
I know time's something I can't outrun
So for now, I'll enjoy my life while I'm still young
But I was younger yesterday
I was in a different space
Usually not the one to complain
But I was younger yesterday
Today I hardly feel my age
Need some help to turn the page
Blame it on my naiveté
Cus I was younger yesterday
Told my mama not to worry
"I'll always be your baby boy"
Not in a hurry
To grow up (grow up)
Damn, I think all these drugs about to make me
Throw up
Oh no
Daybreak
Blinding light from the sun
Cus all last night I was numb
Guess that's the price of being young
And I was younger yesterday
(I was younger yesterday)
I was in a different space
(I was in a different space)
Usually not the one to complain
(Usually not the one to complain)
But I was younger yesterday
Today I hardly feel my age
(Today I hardly feel my age)
Need some help to turn the page
(Need some help to turn the page)
Blame it on my naiveté
Cus I was younger yesterday
Ooh (ooh)
My youth (my youth)
Shields me from the world
Still got lots to learn on
Intentional ignorance
Feel the world at my fingertips
Counting days as they fly on past
Scars they don't heal as fast
From my feelings I run away
Get choked up, don't know what to say
Rather stay living immature
Don't corrupt me, I'm staying pure
Forget about the politics
Need someone to be honest with
Listen, don't be so quick to judge
Maybe show me a little love
All I ask is a little love
Been avoiding the pain
No, I'll never be the same
Cus I know
That I was younger yesterday
Lived my life a different way
Usually, not the one to complain
Today I start to feel my age
Life just hit a different stage
Nothing wrong with naiveté
Cus I was younger yesterday
When I was younger yesterday
I looked at life like it's a race
But now I'm moving my own pace
Cus I was younger yesterday
