Riverside Drive - Be Something Lyrics

A quarter of a century
Has left me with a useless degree
What's the point of anything if I can't find a job
My friends have all found houses
Some are even having kids
Checking all the boxes while I'm scared of growing up
But where do we go from here

I just want to be something that I can be proud of
To have a story to share with the people that I love
I just want to be something
But I'm honestly falling apart
Waiting for the best days of my life to start

But what if they're behind me
What if everything I've done
Is better than what's yet to come
Can anyone remind me
Why I should even try
There's gotta be more than getting by
But where do we go from here

I just want to be something that I can be proud of
To have a story to share with the people that I love
I just want to be something
But I'm honestly falling apart
Waiting for the best days of my life to start

Please believe me when I say
I'm doing my best
To bear the weight that's on my shoulders
This feeling in my chest
The thought of disappointing you
And letting you down
The only thing that really matters
I just want to make you proud

I just want to make you proud
I just want to be something
