Making It Up As I Go

(album: Making It Up As I Go - 2023)

At what age do you feel like a grown up
Is it when you get those keys
To your first car or when you crash it
Or walk in the bar without a fake ID

Is it getting your first house
Losing your first love or moving out of your hometown
Is it when you get married, start having babies
Yeah, I thought I'd know by now

Getting older don't make you wiser
It's the heartbreaks along the way
And some prayers just don't get answered
Until you look back someday
I still love an ICEE from 7-Eleven
Still need my mama at twenty-seven
Thought I'd be living my five-year plan ten years ago
I'm just making it up as I go

Maybe when I turn thirty
I'll finally feel settled down
Or will I still feel like a grown-up kid
Playing my music way too loud

If I catch these dreams I've been chasing
Will that be the day I finally made it
Or will there always be another mountain left to climb
Or will I find

Getting older don't make you wiser
It's the heartbreaks along the way
And some prayers just don't get answered
Until you look back someday
I still love an ICEE from 7-Eleven
Still need my mama at twenty-seven
Thought I'd be living my five-year plan ten years ago
I'm just making it up as I go

Maybe one day I'll have the answers
And again, maybe I won't
Maybe life's about figuring it out as we go

Getting older don't make you wiser
It's the heartbreaks along the way
And some prayers just don't get answered
Until you look back someday
I still love an ICEE from 7-Eleven
Still need my mama at twenty-seven
Thought I'd be living my five-year plan ten years ago
I'm just making it up as I go
I'm just making it up as I go
