Shout out to all the parents who support their children following their dreams. This song is about trying to return that favor to our parents for support us with our dreams.
Of all the places you could go
How'd you end up in the snow
Never made it to the foothills
I'd stay home so I could throw
Broke the fence till it broke me
Wasn't very neighborly
I will make it up to you
One day
Oh I can still see this play out
And I will buy my folks a house
Now that I'm older
And still haven't figured out
What I should do with all these younger dreams
Do I just give up?
Because I haven't made it yet
And write it off as immaturity
I can still see this play out
And I will buy my folks a house
Thought I'd rocket to the moon
And be the busiest in June
But someone scribbled on my pages
And wrote in a different tune
If you told me I'd be here
I'd assume you didn't hear
All the plans I had
But I'm not mad
Oh I can see still see this play out
And I will buy my folks a house
Now that I'm older
And still haven't figured out
What I should do with all these younger dreams
Do I just give up?
Because I haven't made it yet
And write it off as immaturity
Oh I can still see this play out
And I will buy my folks a house
I can see
I can see it
I can see
I can still see it
I can see
I can see it
I can see
I can still see it
Oh I can see still see this play out
And I will buy my folks a house
Now that I'm older
And still haven't figured out
What I should do with all these younger dreams
Do I just give up?
Because I haven't made it yet
And write it off as immaturity
Oh I can still see this play out
And I will buy my folks a house
