VERSE 1
When I grow up,
All I really want to be
Is happy.
Now, why does that dream so far escape me?
Been working way too hard
At not working hard enough.
Cuz we all know, this life ain’t easy.
And I know, that’s just too tough.
Tough luck, tough life.
Fears hurt, but we try
To stifle the tears that we cry on the inside.

CHORUS
And we’ve all got time to find our purpose.
And we’re all dying to make life worth it.
And when it’s my time to say goodbye,
I just want to believe that I’ve succeeded 
At what I’ve tried
And that I can say I got happy.

VERSE 2
We all go down this road.
They tell you that you’re not alone.
Cuz we’re all prone
To messing up, to falling down, to proving
We’re only human, and 
We all know we’re imperfect.
But that doesn’t make it better
When you wanna be the best.
Wanna rise above
The crowd, not just live like
The rest. To progress, not miss your chance to shine.

CHORUS

Yeah, when I grow up,
All I really wanna be, is happy.
Now, why does that dream so far escape me?
