Twenty something | Sounds of Epoch

Your twenties can be a strange place to be. You're old enough to understand the life you want, but still trying to figure out how to build it. You watch people your age buying houses, getting married, starting families, and landing their dream jobs, while you're still trying to make ends meet and wondering whether you're doing enough. LYRICS: [Verse 1] Twenty-something, still trying to find my way Got a couple dreams but they don't pay today Everybody's moving like they know where they're going I'm smiling in the pictures, but nobody really knows it Some got houses, some got babies Some got careers that are looking amazing Somebody's traveling, somebody's getting married I'm checking my account like, “How did I get here?” And I know comparison ain't good for the soul But it's hard not to wonder when you're feeling this low Am I falling behind? Am I wasting my time? Or am I just living a life that's mine? [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I'm not late Maybe I'm just on my way Maybe everybody's timeline Was never meant to be the same [Chorus] I'm twenty-something Still becoming who I'm meant to be Twenty-something Still trying to figure out what I need I don't have all the answers I don't know where I'll be But maybe that's okay I'm twenty-something I'm still becoming me Twenty-something... (still becoming me) [Verse 2] Mom asks me, “So what's the plan?” I say, “I'm working on it” Friends ask me about the future I laugh like I got it But honestly, some nights I don't know what comes next I'm trying to build a life While I'm still paying off the last one I thought by now I'd have it together A little more money, a little more wisdom A place of my own, somebody beside me A clear direction and a reason to drive me But life didn't come with a map And nobody told me it'd feel like this You're old enough to know what you want But young enough to still be scared of it [Pre-Chorus] Maybe I'm not late Maybe I'm just on my way Maybe everybody's timeline Was never meant to be the same [Chorus] I'm twenty-something Still becoming who I'm meant to be Twenty-something Still trying to figure out what I need I don't have all the answers I don't know where I'll be But maybe that's okay I'm twenty-something I'm still becoming me Twenty-something... (still becoming me) Yeah, I'm still becoming me [Bridge] Here's to the nights we don't know Here's to the plans that don't work Here's to the jobs we don't love And the lessons that still hurt Here's to the friends we outgrew Here's to the ones who stayed Here's to the mistakes we made That somehow got us here today Maybe success ain't a finish line Maybe it's waking up and trying again Maybe I'm exactly where I need to be Even if I don't know where this ends [Verse 3] So if you're twenty-something too And you're wondering if you're behind Take a breath, look around You're allowed to take your time You don't have to have the house You don't have to have the ring You don't have to know exactly What you're gonna be Some things take longer Some dreams change shape Some doors close And some open late And maybe one day I'll look back At the person I am today And finally understand Why it had to happen this way [Final Chorus] I'm twenty-something Still becoming who I'm meant to be Twenty-something Still trying to figure out what I need I don't have all the answers I don't know where I'll be But maybe that's okay I'm twenty-something I'm still becoming me Twenty-something... (I'm still becoming) Twenty-something... (still becoming me) I don't have to know it all I just have to keep moving [Outro] Twenty-something... Still learning. Still failing. Still dreaming. Still becoming me. Twenty-something... (yeah...) I'll get there. #TwentySomething #SoundsOfEpoch #JozayHanniel #GrowingUp #YoungAdulthood #QuarterLife #FindingYourWay #PersonalGrowth #LifeLessons #SelfDiscovery #LifeInYourTwenties #KeepGoing #ContemporaryRnB #AfroSoul #MelodicRap
