23 Lyrics

Slow burn, everybody's looking at me

Concerns, but I'm the only one that'll speak

I learned that hard work isn't for the weak

I head south where every other road was a blur

En route and everybody's trying to deter

The real me, 'cause they don't wanna see it

And I don't wanna be it

So I dropped it off and I don't wanna come back

Rearranged my whole life track

I thought I knew who I was gonna be

But I was 23 (And that's still a lot of life to live)

I dropped it off where all the big stars go

Double the fame, not even thirty years old

I knew it back when I was 23, the world was feeling free

And I'd be left alone

I'm twenty-five and I'm feeling kind of reckless

I'm late in life but I'm getting kind of restless

Still learning to how roll with the punches

Love without clutching

Look without touching

I feel alive but it's only when I'm breathless

I feel deprived but it's not because I'm jealous

It's the real me and they don't wanna see it

And I don't wanna be it

So I

So I

So I (I, I)

So I dropped it off and I don't wanna come back

Rearranged my whole life track

I thought I knew who I was gonna be

But I was 23 (And that's still a lot of life to live)

I dropped it off where all the big stars go

Double the fame, not even thirty years old

I knew it back when I was 23, the world was feeling free

And I'd be left alone

I dropped it off and I don't wanna come back (Not coming back)

Rearranged my whole life track (My whole life track)

I thought I knew who I was gonna be

But I was 23 (And that's still a lot of life to live)

I dropped it off where all the big stars go

Double the fame, not even thirty years old

I knew it back when I was 23, the world was feeling free

And I'd be left alone

Slow burn, everybody's looking at me

Concerns, but I'm the only one that'll speak

I learned that hard work isn't for the weak
