It's a Trap

It takes way more than a car
To conquer the world
It seemed a pretty good start
When I was a little girl
How easy would life be
Once are a grown-up
And no one’s gonna tell you
When to speak and keep your mouth shut

Today I know there ain’t no candy-coded wisdom
And I still catch myself feel like a scrub
Sometimes I wish that I could stop this train
But no matter what I say or do

The only way is growing up
And you can’t turn it down
No way to make it stop
Or to turn things around
You can’t go back, back, back
It’s a trap, trap, trap
Fun fact: most times growing up
Seems to bring me down

Now that I can drive a car
I feel smaller than before
Can go anywhere I want
But don’t want to anymore
Should I take the road less travelled
Or the highway to the sea
Anyway I’m stuck in traffic
Shut the door and turn the key

Sometimes I wish that I could stop this train
but no matter what I say or do

The only way is growing up
And you can’t turn it down
No way to make it stop
Or to turn things around
You can’t go back, back, back
It’s a trap, trap, trap
Fun fact: most times growing up
Seems to bring me down

Reached the wrong destinations
Because of streets signs I misread
I was hoping for smooth travel
Or is there cobblestone ahead?

The only way is growing up
And you can’t turn it down
No way to make it stop
Or to turn things around
You can’t go back, back, back
It’s a trap, trap, trap
Fun fact: most times growing up

The only way is growing up
And you can’t turn it down
No way to make it stop
Or to turn things around
You can’t go back, back, back
It’s a trap, trap, trap
Fun fact: most times growing up
Seems to bring me down

You can’t go back, back, back
It’s a trap, trap, trap
Fun fact: most times growing up
Seems to bring me down
