30, 40, 50, 60
How long does it take
To know yourself all the way?
30, 40, 50, 60
I find myself wishing
I was ahead in my timeline
I'll know when I feel it
The age of settling down
In a skin that knows me
Layers of proverbs I wrote
But now it keeps unraveling
I am witness to the destruction
I bring which scatters limbs of
The person that I could be
Will the years piece them for me?
30, 40, 50, 60
How long does it take
To know yourself all the way?
30, 40, 50, 60
I find myself wishing
I was ahead in my timeline.
Time now has graced me
With an array of all of these
Limbs yet acts of god
Hailed down
Tearing at newly healed skin
How can I stay grounded in this?
Is there an end?
Where is my certainty
30, 40, 50, 60
How long does it take
To know yourself all the way?
30, 40, 50, 60
I find myself wishing
I was ahead in my timeline
