I just need a moment in my own space
Ask me how I'm doin', I'll say, "okay"
Yeah, but ain't that what we all say?
Sometimes I think back to the old days
In the pointless conversations
I wish somebody woulda told me
Yeah, as a kid I used to think life
Is moving so slow, I watch it go by
Look out the window on my bus ride
I thought the world was so small,
I've always tried to control things
In the end that's what controls me
Maybe that's why I'm controllin'
I wish somebody woulda told me
The older I get, I feel like
I'm always tryna save time
Talkin' to the voices in my head,
Tellin' me it doesn't mean it's wrong
I'm scared that one day I wake up
and wonder where the time go
like it's the present while I rock slow
I'll sit in the living room
and laugh with kids of my own
you gon' have to go through the pain
you gon' have to learn how to change
I wish somebody woulda told me
you gon' have to give some away
If you want love, if you want love
If you want love, if you want love
