Like instead of sitting it out, like watching from the sidelines,
and like don't let people in your life like ruin it for you.
Like I hope you always take the high road.
Like, you know.
I can't do this.

_ it's so weird to like go back and like listen to a song that was like a
emotional like a memory but with the perspective of the song like the whole point was it's your
senior year you're going off to college things change you're going you know what i mean and
from that perspective you're just like i can't wait to get over my parents have so many rules
and like you know i mean can't wait to get out of their house and be free be a grown-up finally
it's like you know like in that moment you're not really able to conceive of like oh [E] wow 10 years
from now 20 years from now i'm gonna look back and like he's gonna be dead and like you know
what i mean things are gonna be so different like yeah you're [Bb] gonna have you're gonna be
adult but you're gonna have so many responsibilities and stress and stuff like it's just weird when like
life actually like you get to like have those moments where it's like so vivid and it's like
oh snap they told me like this song told me about this but i didn't register it and then like you
know and then like i hope you dance i hope you like enjoy your life [A] you know like don't like
don't get too [Gb] caught up in like sad things or then like where you look back where the years
have gone or whatever it's like that part right i was like dang this is so real whoa it's like
those moments when life slaps you and like with cold water and just wakes you up you're like very present _ _ _
_ i'm just letting you have [G] the floor act uh i don't know
i don't know [Ab] tell me man what [G] do you know
