[Verse]
Bills pile taller than a skyscraper fable,
Wanna flip the table, but it’s unstable.
Clock hands choke me, tickin' tight chains,
Freedom’s a mirage, stuck in these lanes.
Boss texts, "Where you at?"—my soul on read,
But I’m here, clocked in, wishin' I was dead.
[Prechorus]
The rent’s due, my patience spent too.
Childhood dreams turnin' into IOUs.
[Chorus]
Adulthood, worst hood I’ve ever lived in,
No maps, no signs, just decisions driven.
Lost keys, lost sleep, no time forgiven,
Adulthood, worst hood I’ve ever lived in.
[Verse 2]
Groceries feel like a heist, wallet cries,
Car broke down, engine hums goodbyes.
Neighbors silent, their vibes feel hostile,
The block is hot, but not the fun style.
Used to dream of freedom, the grown-up life,
Now I’m married to stress, that’s my wife.
[Prechorus]
Late fees, my whole life on repeat,
Adulthood’s a scam, I got the receipt.
[Chorus]
Adulthood, worst hood I’ve ever lived in,
No maps, no signs, just decisions driven.
Lost keys, lost sleep, no time forgiven,
Adulthood, worst hood I’ve ever lived in.
