[Verse]
Run run fast as you can
World sprintin' like a madman
They say enjoy it while young
But now my song's unsung
[Verse 2]
Candy dreams and playground vibes
Replace with 9 to 5 drives
Echoes of laughter now fade
Growing up's a masquerade
[Chorus]
Time's ticking and it won’t stop
Life's a race to the last drop
Now I get what they meant
Youth's a fortune that's been spent
[Verse 3]
Building castles in the air
Now it’s paychecks and despair
Magic's gone from daily grind
Fairytales are left behind
[Bridge]
Running through the days so fast
Can't catch up to the past
Memories were my treasure
Lost 'em now are weethe measure
[Chorus]
Time's ticking and it won’t stop
Life's a race to the last drop
Now I get what they meant
Youth's a fortune that's been spent
