Adulthood

Sometimes you gotta do things
You don't wanna do
Sometimes responsibility takes over
It's a sacrifice we all make
We must take advantage of childhood
Because eventually
We forget what it is like
To see the world as a playground
So to all the kids out there
I envy you
We all do
Deep down we're all kids
But adulthood is always the trump
