M4TR - Never Act Your Age Lyrics




They say I'm too old for this
Nobody wants me to sing the blues
I never learned to rap, dance or even dress
And I can't pull off these shoes

Forty fifty times I been around the block
And not a signpost up ahead
I found another way to turn around the clock
I think I'll sleep it off when I'm dead

Sisyphus, help me raise the rock
And at the top, let's have a beer
Another midlife crisis aftershock
It could be all downhill from here

But closer to the bottom, I'll be speeding up
Every second feel more alive
Be anything I want if I can dream it up
Ya see my soul's still 25

I feel hipper, a little hyper
I've been asleep for far too long
I'm Peter Pan and the Pied Piper
Y'all should learn to sing my song

I have come to elucidate you
You can watch me shed my skin
You will find that it's never to late to
Realize what you might have been

Not saying that I got all the answers
Not saying that I've got a plan
I live life for a few second chances
And learning how to be just who I am

I say it's about the intention
I say you can be redeemed
You can be the master of reinvention
And count your days by your dreams

Never act your age, because that's just a number
'Til we all lie dead, no solace, sleep or slumber
Never act your age, your spirit's aiming higher
Count it, 3-2-1, on a rocket heading skyward

Millennials put away your phones
Take your heads out of your screen
We cannot wait around until you're feeling grown
Ya prob'ly don't know what I mean

It's time to step up, step out and take a stand
We can meet up in the street
Together we can finally stick it to the man
With no surrender, no retreat

I feel hipper, a little hyper
I've been asleep for far too long
I'm Peter Pan and the Pied Piper
You should learn to sing this song

I have come to elucidate you
You can watch me shed my skin
You will find that it's never to late to
Realize what you might have been

I'm not saying that I've got all the answers
I'm just saying that you've come this far
Live your life for a few second chances
And learning how to be just who you are

I say it's about the intention
I say you can be redeemed
You can be the master of reinvention
And count you days by your dreams

Never act your age, because that's just a number
'Til we all lie dead, no solace, sleep or slumber
Never act your age, your spirit's aiming higher
Count it, 3-2-1, on a rocket heading skyward
