Verse 1)
Woke up this morning, coffee's bitter taste
Another Monday, in this rat race
Thought by now I'd have it all figured out
But adulting's just a constant doubt
Bills are piling, job's a daily grind
Still searching for some peace of mind
They said I'd be a man, strong and bold
But the same old story's getting old
(Chorus)
Still just a kid, stuck in a grown-up world
My dreams are spinning, twisted and swirled
They tell me to grow up, get a real plan
But I'm just doing the best I can
Still just a kid, with a messy room and mind
Leaving all the answers far behind
Is this what growing up is truly about?
Just more confusion, more reason to shout?
(Verse 2)
Remember sneaking out, staying up all night?
Now it's early meetings, losing all my light
Used to dread the homework, tests and school
Now it's taxes and feeling like a fool
My old band's broken, friends are moving on
Got responsibilities, from dusk till dawn
They talk about investments, retirement schemes
I'm still just chasing all my fleeting dreams
(Chorus)
Still just a kid, stuck in a grown-up world
My dreams are spinning, twisted and swirled
They tell me to grow up, get a real plan
But I'm just doing the best I can
Still just a kid, with a messy room and mind
Leaving all the answers far behind
Is this what growing up is truly about?
Just more confusion, more reason to shout?
(Bridge)
Maybe it's okay to not have a clue
To stumble and fall, see things anew
The pressure's building, it's hard to breathe
But there's a rebel inside, I still believe
That youth isn't just a number or a phase
It's a feeling, through all these adult mazes
(Chorus)
Still just a kid, stuck in a grown-up world
My dreams are spinning, twisted and swirled
They tell me to grow up, get a real plan
But I'm just doing the best I can
Still just a kid, with a messy room and mind
Leaving all the answers far behind
Is this what growing up is truly about?
Just more confusion, more reason to shout?
(Outro)
Yeah, still just a kid, and I guess that's fine
Trying to find my place, on this winding line
Still just a kid, trying to figure it out
Without a doubt, without a doubt.
