Growing Down

I used to crave a seat at a table

That I should've fucking flipped (ooh)

But now I finally feel at ease in the skin I'm living in

Stopped giving a shit

About the people who are a walking contradiction

Who love to tell me who i am when they never try to listen

It took a lot of self reflecting on my second guessing

And coming to terms with my first impressions

Is there a better way to learn a lesson

Than

Growing Down

Into roots that I tried to rip away from

Deep in the grounds

Of the hills that I'm willing die on

Into my body

Into the lyrics

Into the feelings that I wanna keep feeling

After growing up I found

There ain't no ceiling

If I'm growing down

It took time to realize perfection ain't the enemy of good

And falling forwards

Will get me farther than giving up or quitting ever could

So look

Now that I'm firmly

Planted in the dirt

Words don't really hurt

And for what it's worth

I know I might not look like much to you in a baggy t shirt

But damn, there's a lot of diamonds in the rough of the earth so I'm

Growing Down

Into roots that I tried to rip away from

Deep in the grounds

Of the hills that I'm willing die on

Into my body

Into the lyrics

Into the feelings that I wanna keep feeling

After growing up I found

There ain't no ceiling

If I'm growing down

I'm going deeper than I've ever gone before

It makes hard things harder to ignore

So if you see me out at the bar

And I don't look like I'm fallin apart

It's cause I'm growing down

It's cause i'm growing down

Into my body

Into the lyrics

Into the feelings that I wanna keep feeling

After growing up I found

There ain't no ceiling

If I'm growing down

If I'm growing down

I'm growing down
