I was young, reckless, careless and naive
but I was happy.
I'm older now, stressed, depressed
and with anxiety.
They'll say you got your whole life to live
to be where you want to be.

Now I think about that differently
like 6 feet deep.
I'm still young only 23
but my hearts concrete.
When they said set in stone
did they mean my name and date engraved
under their feet.

Soon I'll be 23 and 11 months
just days before.
Thinking if I really wanna just survive
in 24.
I was young, I felt alive
now I'm 23, feel dead inside
so do I really wanna do this anymore.
