You know, I've realized that I've been getting older, and, well, there's nothing I can do to stop it

Been getting older and it ain't even over

Too much on my mind, please just give me some

Time

Told my mama yesterday, I'm scared of her dying

Still a kid inside, but this grown-up's a lion

Life's a game, I ain't learned all the rules, every moment is a lesson, they say, wisdom

Rules

Independent while I grind, I'm feeling the weight

Ain't no cakewalk, man, it's one hell of a fate

Old, but bold, I ain't let it fold

Got my eyes on the prize, watch the story unfold

Watch me rise from the ashes, yeah, I'm breaking the mold

A warrior inside, but a heart full of gold

Old, but bold, I ain't let it fold

Got my eyes on the prize, watch the story unfold

Watch me rise from the ashes, yeah, I'm breaking the mold

A warrior inside, but a heart full of gold

Time's a thief, but it taught me to fight

A warrior's spirit in this dark, endless night

The clock keeps turning, but I'm doing what's right

Ain't no slowing down, I'm ready to ignite

Feeling older, yeah, it's weighing on my chest

But I'm breaking through the fear, no time for some rest

Ain't no walking back, I'm all about the check

Got this hunger in my soul, and it's so complex

I'm spitting these bars like it's life or death, fear creeping in, ain't no telling what's next

Life's rolling on, man, I'm feeling so vexed

Aging like wine, but I'm still in my prime

Wrinkles creeping in, damn, I'm losing my shine

Got so many problems and not enough time

Feeling like a relic, like I'm stuck in rewind

Looking in the mirror

Sseeing all the stars align with mine

Old, but bold, I ain't let it fold

Got my eyes on the prize, watch the story unfold

Watch me rise from the ashes, yeah, I'm breaking the mold

A warrior inside, but a heart full of gold

Old, but bold, I ain't let it fold

Got my eyes on the prize, watch the story unfold

Watch me rise from the ashes, yeah, I'm breaking the mold

A warrior inside, but a heart full of gold

Since I was a kid, I always wondered what I would be

Told my mama I didn't need no degree

Now I'm feeling old, what happened to me

Used to dream big, now it's just memories

Used to run wild, now I'm stuck in my mind

Got a million regrets and I'm running out of time

Counting these years like a clock on the wall, once I was kid running round a mall

Old, but bold, I ain't let it fold

Got my eyes on the prize, watch the story unfold

Watch me rise from the ashes, yeah, I'm breaking the mold

A warrior inside, but a heart full of gold

Old, but bold, I ain't let it fold

Got my eyes on the prize, watch the story unfold

Watch me rise from the ashes, yeah, I'm breaking the mold

A warrior inside, but a heart full of gold
