zane smith - twenty-one(21) lyrics
[verse 1]
twenty-one
a big number. what’s the significance?
another completed year of experience
another accomplishment in this game called life
not to mention – the access to some new rights
allowed to explore the night
i’d rather stay in the day
when it comes to crowds, i’ve always been a stray
and on this day
they allow me to purchase booze and guns
i don’t need the combination to have my fun
i’m twenty-one
la,la,la (3x)
lah
[hook: zane smith]
i’m twenty-one (32x)
[verse 2]
i can’t lie
i might’ve had some booze once or twice
consumed responsibly
still remember the night
the taste – i don’t really like
mixing boozes and fruit juices till’ it’s delicious
no point in me drinking if i ain’t tryna get drunk or tipsy
seen my peers p-ssy
believe me i ain’t missing
out – on no action
pressured and offered but believe me, i’m p-ssing
a fraction of what i’ve seen is more harm than good
peers giving in though they said they never would
often misunderstood
but i don’t understand why
people buy
and people try
an expensive habit just like any other
buy one
then another
and another
seen my brothers
and my sisters in this state
drinking’s overrated
don’t understand why people think it’s so great
la,la,la (3x)
lah
[hook: zane smith]
i’m twenty-one (16x)
[verse 3]
at eighteen you can buy guns
twenty-one, concealed weapons
an excuse – it’s for protection
from who – from what
but people don’t understand that life is precious
people are neglecting the fact that if you tote it you’ll brandish it
prolly the main reason that people keep vanishing
it’s tragic
i would imagine
wrong doing isn’t always planned
but bad things happen when in the wrong hands
reputation, women, and money don’t make a man
we go from a little boy, to young man, and then to an adult
many years of preparation to see slim results
and i still ain’t there
don’t know what’s out there for me in this world
but i still ain’t scared
yeah i said i still ain’t scared
[hook: zane smith]
i’m twenty-one (8x)
[verse 4]
when i see twenty-one i picture a new beginning
one chapter opens while another has just ended
now i’m creating visions
accomplishments i’ll earn
and the lessons i’ll learn
for the wisdom i yearn
but for now, i celebrate my life on my own terms
because unfortunately, not everyone gets a turn
age twenty-one i celebrate with this song
because each year of life should be better than the last
a continuous progression
moving further from the past
