[ Featuring Alan Walker ]
When I grow up, I wanna be like me
Can't tell me nothin', 'bout who to be
When I grow up, I wanna be like me
Can't stop me runnin' young, wild and free
Livin' life in fast pace
Traded all my tours for foreplay
Sleepless nights turned to slumber parties
Milk and juice turn to Coke and Bacardi
From daydreams and stories
That I live now, night 'til mornin'
From crawlin' to walkin'
Now I run the game like Spaldin'
Hands up in the air if you livin' life young, wild, and free
Made somethin' out of nothin' from a dollar and a dream
Close my eyes and see my younger self smilin', smilin' at me
Lookin' back is funny 'cause I said
When I grow up, I wanna be like me
Can't tell me nothin', 'bout who to be
When I grow up, I wanna be like me
Can't stop me runnin' young, wild and free
When I grow up
Can't tell me nothin'
When I grow up
Can't stop me runnin'
When I grow up
Catch a bad chick by her toe
Be my little eenie meenie 'til I pick some more
Good brain you make honor roll
I'm a cat, I'm a dog, I'm a Paw Patrol
Back then they didn't want me
Now, Mike Jones, they all up on me
From free throws to sorry
Shoot my shot, they jump like Jordan, yeah
When you run the game this long it starts to jog your memory
Learnin' ABCs to travelin' global from A through Z
Cold shoulders turn to Miami heat and all through the club
Livin' out my childhood dreams, I say one day
When I grow up, I wanna be like me (just like me)
Can't tell me nothin', 'bout who to be (yeah, yeah)
When I grow up (when I grow up), I wanna be like me (I wanna be like me)
Can't stop me runnin' (can't stop me runnin') young, wild and free (ayy)
When I grow up
Can't tell me nothin' (can't stop me)
When I grow up (all the way up, all the way up)
Can't stop me runnin' (yeah)
When I grow up
