Jumbo
I have come to say
That there’s been days
When I been deeply in pain
When the subject has been the same
But now I’m 18
And I have seen
The angry gray
The happy mood of May
The upsetting shade of blue
But some trends aren’t new
I have been dismayed
I have seen loved ones pass away
I have been in defeat
I have seen hope that has been beat
I have not lived half enough
I had to at time be all the way tough
But at my age I been through a lot
I had to untangle big knots
But that’s what I had to say
