I'm a man not a boy
I'm a man not a boy
Can't be like I used to
Can't cry like I used to
I'm a man not a boy
I'm a man not a boy
You don't impress me like you used to
Don't affect me like you used to
And your playground rules
Funny how they still rule you
You're still like the kids on our old rough estate
But I always knew that I wanted escape
I always knew that I wanted escape
I always knew that I wanted escape
I always knew that I wanted escape
Away from my fate, away from my fate
These are the days that we want them to be
These are the days that we make them to be
These are the days we can waste on repeat
These are the days, these are the days
I wanna live before I die
For my words to testify
And reflect what I hope to
Do better than I used to
And your playground rules
Funny how they still hold you
I fought everyday to break out from my fate
Away from my fate, away from my fate
These are the days that we want them to be
These are the days that we make them to be
These are the days we can waste on repeat
These are the days, these are the days
Your made up rules - walls
Funny how they still hold you
