He wonders, where the gold is there
His life, now and then, it feels a little bit strange
All the chances, and all his mistakes
Well, he wonders, how can he ever make a change?
And his friends say, "Hey, you're gonna be fine"
With all this hard work, you put into your life
And they told him, "Sometimes it feels the same"
But when they do so, man, then you'll just start to sing, hey
When I was younger, my mama told me
You will find something you love
Don't you worry 'bout what other people think
When I was younger, my daddy would say
"Make a sense out of your living
Take your time, but give it everything you have"
She's hopeless, she never felt so low
In this dark place, she doesn't know where to go, uh
All the downfalls and all the lost thought
It doesn't make sense no more, but it goes on and on
And her friends say, "Hey, you're gonna be fine"
With all this hard work, you put into your life
Yeah, they told her, "Sometimes it feels the same"
But when they do so, then let go of the pain, yeah, now
When I was younger (younger), my momma told me
You will find something you love
Don't you worry 'bout what other people think
When I was younger (younger), my daddy would say (daddy would say)
Make a sense out of your living
Take your time, but give it everything you have
When I was younger, my momma told me
You will find something you love
Don't you worry 'bout what other people think (don't you worry, don't you worry)
When I was younger, my daddy would say
Make a sense out of your living
Take your time, but give it everything you have
