Description
A song about coming to terms with what it means to "grow up" and leave home.
Lyrics
I ask myself why I'm more comfortable With staying home Not growing up I just want to fit in the clothes I wore When I was only 15 years old Cause I don't feel so tall I stay low, and do what I am told Dreaming of places I may never know Well here I am An adolescent man I just can't measure up To what I want to be I don't feel so tall I can hear the rattling of toys that were used to distract me I need to hear my mother's voice Singing lullabies that tell me there's nothing in this world That can make me who I am That can take from who I am In the shade of wisdom's tree I read the books my elders gave to me And the stories enthralled me But it's not the same as being there And witnessing the world for all it is What am I missing? But I don't feel so tall I'll never walk in my own shoes
