Lyrics

I still recall eight years old
Tears running down my cheek
It felt you took my universe
So I'd always sit and scream
You understood how my mother moved
And how her kindness breathes
But now I'm almost eighteen
Well I just learned how to stay close
To that solid yellow line
I won't forget how you reached
For my wheel that one time
When I's distracted merging on
At one thirty-five
And I gave up my blind
You never taught me how to throw
The first fist in a fight
You taught me how to save up
And love a woman right
You planned and booked your family's dreams
Taking care of everything
But now I'm almost eighteen
So I gotta drag my boots
Out of my roots
Promise I
Won't stop halfway through the climb
You took out your best
Put it in my chest
Packed it tight
So I'd never unwind
You set the bar fucking high
Dad I'm almost eighteen
I never knew the reasons why
You were so damn keen
On keeping health, loving well
And not quittin' on the team
I guess I finally realized why
You pushed me
Cause Dad I'm almost eighteen
And I turn and toss in my bed
Cause I'm losing too much sleep
I guess I can't figure out
Just who I wanna be
There's a decision wrestling match
With my head and my dreams
Cause I'm almost eighteen
So I gotta drag my boots
Out of my roots
Promise I
Won't stop halfway through the climb
You took out your best
Put it in my chest
Packed it tight
So I'd never unwind
And I'll visit everytime
When you're almost eighty
I'm lucky enough I found a girl
When I's young and naive
Pulled me out of a fallin' hole
And let the light seep
She sees what I don't see in me
Sees the man you made me
Up until I's eighteen
