Adulting

Remember when we were kids?
And all we wanted was to grow up? 
Now as adults, we're flipping our lids 
Wondering if the stress will ever stop

Back then we were all so carefree
Life seemed easy, a breeze and then some
As we got older we all began to see
How difficult life actually becomes

We still have to make time for our friends
And as adults we’re sometimes forced to choose
The real few will always be with you end
We have to let go of some we don’t want to lose

Now it’s responsibilities galore
It's mostly all work, hardly any play 
And childhood feels like a lifetime ago 
That's just how it is, there is no other way 

We have priorities like bills and food
And we do what we can, just to get by
It’s all a routine, which is not always good
We just do what we do and don’t ask why

Adulting was never meant to be easy at all
But we have to keep running our own race
Life may overwhelm us and make us feel small

And all we can do is try and keep up with the pace
