[Verse 1]
Growing up without a dime
It was so damn fun
Mom worked overtime
And Dad was gone
And I know it's not easy
Now I know I'm not easy
[Verse 2]
Ride around the neighborhood
With my older friends
Go to sleep whenever I want
And burn it down
Oh, I know I wasn't easy
Now I know I wasn't easy
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't blame you for things we never did
Or bad things I've done
I don't blame you for things we never did
Or bad things I've done
[Chorus]
She was lost
He was gone
It was right
I could do whatever I wanted
He was lost
She was gone
It's alright
I could be whatever I wanted
Growing up without a dime
It was so damn fun
Mom worked overtime
And Dad was gone
And I know it's not easy
Now I know I'm not easy
[Verse 2]
Ride around the neighborhood
With my older friends
Go to sleep whenever I want
And burn it down
Oh, I know I wasn't easy
Now I know I wasn't easy
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't blame you for things we never did
Or bad things I've done
I don't blame you for things we never did
Or bad things I've done
[Chorus]
She was lost
He was gone
It was right
I could do whatever I wanted
He was lost
She was gone
It's alright
I could be whatever I wanted
