How did that happen?
One day I woke up
and noticed I was a grown
where has been time
since I was a kid?
I forgot how to play
from the moment I was little
but every now and then
my memory takes over
I chuckle and laugh
about things been said
silly stuff people did
and ofcourse mine
The older I become
the younger I feel inside
and do you know what?
it's the best time of my life
