Echezona - We Grew Up Too Fast Lyrics

Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Rock with me one time
E-C to the H-E and nobody do it better, huh?

Times are changing, we gettin' older
But it ain't everything we dreamed of when we were young
All we wanted was to run free, run free
We grew up too fast
We grew up too fast
All we wanted was to run free, run free
We grew up too fast (Way too fast, way too fast)
We grew up too fast

For all my millennials
They can't shut us down like they want to

Seen my cousin Jackie in the whip the other day (threw me off, for real)
Still remember asking for permission to bike to Tedeschi's
And we ain't even turn 8
We ain't lil' kids anymore, as crazy as it may be
Kept it real with Mama, I know it's gon' cause some drama but
It's gon' different when I turn 18
But it's always hard to get used to change
Priorities made my friends become too estranged
Can't get mad, we all wanna get paid
But damn, no time to kick it at Canobie Lake? I feel ya
We got jobs now, we waitin' for our license
Get us a car now, we chargin' dudes for ridin'
Sooner than later, it's bills and taxes
I thought we was young forever, damn, what's happenin'?
Man

Times are changing, we gettin' older
But it ain't everything we dreamed of when we were young
All we wanted was to run free, run free
We grew up too fast
We grew up too fast
All we wanted was to run free, run free
We grew up too fast
We grew up too fast
We grew up too fast
Times are changing, we gettin' older
But it ain't everything we dreamed of when we were young
All we wanted was to run free, run free
We grew up too fast
We grew up too fast
All we wanted was to run free, run free
We grew up too fast
We grew up too fast

Young shorty from the burbs, said she wanna be a nurse
Grew up with her, nowadays I never see her at the church
Driving lessons or whatever, been on her agenda
Heard her mom and daddy blessed her, with wheels to finesse in
Skrrr!
Alright alright alright, no need to brag, bruh
You got a tank to fill, all a sudden, you gassed up
Can't even hate though, gotta send my congrats up
Ain't even got the permit yet, I need to catch up
But promise me this, you pick me up sometime
Let's cruise around and reminisce, just like when we were kids
I know a Jamaican spot where we can grab some oxtail
Jerk chicken and rice, baby, I cannot fail
Don't tell me you got work, take the day off
Run up on your boss if you tell me you got laid off
Just want you to enjoy a night, I
Don't want you workin' on a no boring 9-5, ah
No, you can't live that way for the rest of your life, ah
What I got up my sleeve, baby, it's no surprise, ah, yeah

So how 'bout you come scoop me around like 7'o clock
You know what I mean, we go to that restaurant around the corner?
Grab a lil' bite to eat?
You know a brotha be hungry sometimes
Yeah
And let the nightlife take away with us
Yeah
How that sound?
One time

Times are changing, we gettin' older
But it ain't everything we dreamed of when we were young
All we wanted was to run free, run free
We grew up too fast
We grew up too fast
All we wanted was to run free, run free
We grew up too fast
We grew up too fast
