Lost My Childhood

(album: The Change - 2022)

I lost my childhood had to grow up fast
All our money was gone in the 08 crash
I knew I had to do something or we wouldn't last
Haven't seen my mother smile in a while it's sad

Now my family's stuck in six figures of debt
How can I just sit back and watch them barely pay rent
I don't wanna grow old but I don't have a choice
Throw my childhood away guess I lose that joy

It's either that or we all die deep in debt
And I don't wanna live a life that type of regret

I don't wanna let my mother die where she never knows
A life outside of work cause she's growing old

I lost my childhood
Had to grow up and mature
Wish that I had all the money
To help everyone who loves me

Oh I lost my childhood
Grew up so misunderstood
Couldn't hang out cause I was working
In the end, was it all worth it?

While all my friends were out on vacation
I was back at home trying to change our situation
Gave up playing games trying to play the game of stocks and riches
Reading books and articles to fulfill my mission

Never had the time to sit back and relax every day
I got so many people betting everything on my name
And I don't wanna let them down now
I just wanna make them proud

Maybe someday coming soon
I will make it and ill do everything that I ever dreamed about

Maybe someday coming soon
Even though I lost my youth
Lost my youth

I lost my childhood
Had to grow up and mature
Wish that I had all the money
To help everyone who loves me

Oh I lost my childhood
Grew up so misunderstood
Couldn't hang out cause I was working
In the end, was it all worth it?

In the end, was it all worth it?
