It feels so scary getting old
Being happy only on the phone
Strange people saying love
But your parents saying no

I just turned seventeen
I just can say: What does it mean
Everything is not what is seems
This is not what I want to be

So sad, but true
No they warn not you
It's a nightmare, yeah

So sad, but true
No they warn not you
It's a nightmare
It's the adult world

In this toxic conversation
I'm spitting facts, no accusations
It's all they presented me
Just wanna know what life means

Since I was five my eyes are opened
Could be better if I had a hopper
Nobody was there to give me a help
Nobody cares what I felt

So sad, but true
No they warn not you
It's a nightmare, yeah

So sad, but true
No they warn not you
It's a nightmare
It's the adult world

Tired of lying and saying ok
It's another time, it's a different way
Time to move some things up

I'm trying hard to not overthink
Gonna get out the best out of me
I wanna be the change

In this adult world
In this adult world
In this adult world
