Neverland

I've been tryna fill these big shoes Tryna tie them with no laces Every morning I look for the good news But barely skim the pages It's like if I don't try I won't make it 'Cause my head's deep in the sand pit And I burn through every payslip And wonder where all my money's gone If I don't look I won't find it Dig my head deep in the sand pit 'Cause inside I'm still a shy kid Stealing dreams like a bandit on the run 'Cause all of my friends only carry a briefcase I carry a torch Like everyone's built a house for the weekdays But I'm building a fort (Oh, oh-oh-oh) And I keep on waiting to wade from my dreamscape But really what for? What for? What for? (Oh, oh-oh-oh) But really what for? Son, you gotta grow up, you gotta go Reach a little higher It's time to get serious Experience Will take you from a boy into a man Son, the years add up and downright, fly by like the wind I'll stay glorious Notorious 'Cause you can't take the boy from Neverland, yeah (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) I keep tryna fly cause I still think I can (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Ooh, 'cause you can't take the boy from Neverland Oh, I keep trying to go for the gold star Impress my parents and bring home straight A's As if my life could be told in report cards But kind of wish it could somedays 'Cause if I be perfect high achiever But I'm nervous that I'm neither 'Cause I'm burning with the fever And nothing's able to put me out So, will I ever just feel it? The things I want to feel and This future's not appealing So maybe I'll just stay forever young 'Cause all of my friends only carry a briefcase I carry a torch Like everyone's built a house for the weekdays But I'm building a fort (Oh, oh-oh-oh) And I keep on waiting to wade from my dreamscape But really what for? What for? What for? (Oh, oh-oh-oh) But really what for? Son, you gotta grow up, you gotta go Reach a little higher It's time to get serious Experience Will take you from a boy into a man Son, the years add up and downright, fly by like the wind I'll stay glorious Notorious 'Cause you can't take the boy from Neverland, yeah (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) I keep tryna fly cause I still think I can (Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh) Ooh, 'cause you can't take the boy from Neverland Son, you gotta grow up, you gotta go (Oh, oh-oh-oh) Reach a little higher It's time to get serious (Oh-oh-oh) Experience Will take you from a boy into a man Son, the years add up and downright (Oh, oh-oh-oh) Fly by like the wind I'll stay glorious (Oh-oh-oh) Notorious 'Cause you can't take the boy from Neverland (Ooh) Ooh, 'cause you can't take the boy from Neverland
