21

Feeling my way out of darkness I found myself in the spotlight of marvelous dreams come true Feeling my way out of distress I am bound to find you, locked up inside the tower of nightmarish blue Looking forward to being twenty one Haters gonna hate and lovers gonna love A million battles of insanity I've won Complainers gonna complain while I rove Handsome hurts, but it's getting me a lot of unnecessary attention Not to mention I'm hurting emotionally like an expert in detention Breathless because you and I disappeared out of the blue Speechless because you haven't a clue what I've been through Growing weary of being twenty I wish I could be your true infinity Met up with regret long ago I guess you really had to know Say something purely positive for once Lift the glass in your freedom response Don't wanna be caught up in your love affair Raise your glass and this feast here I will share I guess I've left my heart At the wacko dance floor I guess I've left my brain's art In the land of nevermore Yeah, you sure know how to make my day sunny today You sure know how to make my night more than okay I pray this year, I will party with you and bump glasses all night long I must say, my dear, you sure know how to make things look right when they are wrong!! Kidding, let's sing a karoake song!! We be singing off key We be singing in glee We be screaming in delightful joy We be yelling like an immature boy We be celebrating for no reason actually We be rejoicing profoundly, No time for being lonely More time for being jolly in a jiffy! My motives are to be by your side and make me happy like free rides Who cares who watches...who gives... Love me and hold me harder until the tide of turmoil and trauma subsides They all scatter like roaches - chaos lives! Let the drama of commotion begin Again and again and again I reckon... I am really not a party type... Nor am I a fan of smelling ripe! I look solemnly at my reflection I dismiss my shadow of rejection Twenty one is the number I wanna feel Darkness is battling light for real...the struggle is real, but no big deal Optimistic, yet nervous to say the least Maybe, I might have alcoholic beverage feast I probably won't be drunk off my ass I have class like morning dewed, nicely cut grass I have climbed mountains to glance your way I have hiked valleys and rivers all night and day Being twenty one is gonna be an age of ups and downs Being twenty one will be the privilege of smiles and frowns Maybe even success up in these towns! Cheers to that and this with 21 crowns~ Wear dem upside down frowns Stop being lame, ashamed clowns Finding my way towards the end of the tunnel I happen to zip my way through a star-gazing universe of future utopia Meandering through the tundra of a hundred labyrinths as well I snap my fingers in impatient anticipation and notice I am already 21 - oh yeah! Single and legal - oh yeah! (: But, not in a naughty way - oh no! Bleh!
