Born and Raised

[Verse 1] Now and then I pace my place I can't retrace how I got here I cheat the light to check my face It's slightly harder than last year [Chorus] But all at once it gets hard to take It gets hard to fake what I won't be Because one of these days I'll be born and raised And it’s such a waste to grow up lonely [Verse 2] I still have dreams, they’re not the same They don’t fly as high as they used to I saw my friend, he's in my head And he said, “You don’t remember me do you?” [Chorus] [Verse 3] Still got time, still got faith I call on both of my brothers Got a mom, got a dad But they do not have each other [Outro] So line on up and take your place Show your face to the morning Because one of these days you’ll be Born and raised and it All comes up without warning
