rick malaya – 23 lyrics
i woke up one night and realized
that i myself don’t recognize
the person i’ve become at 23
it made me think about the nights
when i would stare into the sky
dreaming ‘bout the person who i thought i’d be
my father looked me in the eye
and said, my son oh tell me why
have you forsaken the things we thought you’d do?
i never found the nerve or courage
to tell him ‘bout my newfound knowledge
for the first time in my life, i have no clue
i went to college, got a degree
found a job, and saw the world
for what it was, i followed the book
but they don’t teach you back at school
that when you follow all the rules
close to your heart, you are a fool
so now i ask myself
who am i, what am i supposed to be?
shouldn’t i be somebody when i’m 23
wish i knew, somebody please give me a clue
is someone out there who can tell me what to do
my friends just go about their lives
and all of them appear to thrive
while here i’m on a nosedive, yes i’m sure
reevaluating choices
seeing where to make a difference
how to pace my life, see if i can do more
i fell in love and saw their ends
i made my enemies and friends
forgave everyone, whatever the sin
but looking back, i can’t help thinking
if there’s something that i’m missing
is it fair that i keep pondering
these questions to myself
who am i, what am i supposed to be
shouldn’t i be somebody when i’m 23
wish i knew, somebody please give me a clue
is someone out there who can tell me what to do
who am i, what am i supposed to be
shouldn’t i be somebody when i’m 23
wish i knew, somebody please give me a clue
is someone out there who can tell
because i, i am afraid to fall into oblivion
does anybody know
who am i, what am i supposed to be
shouldn’t i be somebody when i’m 23
wish i knew, somebody please give me a clue
is someone out there who can tell me what to do
who am i, what am i supposed to be
shouldn’t i be somebody when i’m 23
wish i knew, somebody please give me a clue
is someone out there who can tell me what to do
‘cause i will raise h-ll if no one tells me what to do
