So much more

I've seen some things and I've done some too.
I'm trying hard just to make it through today.

I'm a little taller now but
There's still a little room to grow.
I'm a little smarter now but
There's so much more I need to know.

Always told don't turn back,
You're living your life on a one-way track
Until all your problems fade away.

Empty promises,
Broken dreams,
Life was simple or so it seems.
