Leave me be, I just need a little time to think About the consequences of my actions And it only just occurred to me I haven't been considerate toward the people surrounding me
And I beg forgiveness I know it's clear that I have changed It doesn't have to be seen as negative The change in me is from the coming of age It will continue until every last hair turns grey Would it be fair to say I've grown up into something you hate Look me in the eyes and tell me why Your opinion of me should make me change my lifestyle
Now I've let everything sink in And put all of my effort into thinking I have come to the conclusion That I was making all the same mistakes you did My age has nothing to do with this If I was 25 you'd still treat me as a kid That's the difference between you and me Your time has been now it's my turn to have a say
I am my own man, I've got my own thoughts I'm quite capable of thinking for myself So when you tell me to follow your rules Don't be offended if I rebel I've made mistakes and taken note of them Grown up and learnt not to make the same ones again Wisdom can only be gained through experience I need to be given the chance to be wise
(Jack Nelligan of Hindsight) Yeah give me the chance to try How else will you know if I'll succeed or not I understand there's risks in life Help me understand why you think I can't take them on I know I'm strong enough to make it where I need to go This is the life I chose I'll make the most Of my time engrossed in my youthTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
