golden years - Christian French

Lyrics by：Christian Blake French/Griffith Lee Clawson

Composed by：Christian Blake French/Griffith Lee Clawson

I can never get some rest

Oh-oh oh

Staring at my ceiling

Thinking 'bout the weight that's on my chest

I'm always worried 'bout what's next

I think I forgot

How to live in present tense

Present tense

Yeah I'm supposed to be in the prime of my life

But all I can see are the demons I fight

Try to believe that there's a silver lining

I can't find it I don't wanna be

Spending all my golden years

Climbing all the way to the top

So how the hell'd I wind up here

Tryna be somebody I'm not

I used to be a lot less jaded

Now I'm lost and all frustrated

Trading happiness for tears

And all my golden years

I could be a mile ahead by now

Somewhere better

But I'm burning all my daylight wondering how

I can get there

I know I shouldn't count all of my days under the sun

But I don't wanna blink and then I wake up and it's gone

I never really got to be the person that I wanna be

Oh oh

I'm supposed to feel like I'm living it right

Is it all in my head

Am I wasting my time

Try to believe that there's a silver lining

I can't find it I don't wanna be

Spending all my golden years

Climbing all the way to the top

So how the hell'd I wind up here

Tryna be somebody I'm not

I used to be a lot less jaded

Now I'm lost and all frustrated

Trading happiness for tears

And all my golden years

Oh-oh oh-oh oh

And all my golden years

Oh-oh oh-oh oh

I don't wanna be

Spending all my golden years

Climbing all the way to the top

So how the hell'd I wind up here

Tryna be somebody I'm not

I used to be a lot less jaded

Now I'm lost and all frustrated

Trading happiness for tears

And all my golden years
