When I was four
I picked a new name for myself
Didn't like the one I had before
So I swapped the card on the shelf
My teacher laughed
And my parents just sighed
But I'm proud of myself
Even if I'm banged up inside
I'm on my way
But to where I do not know
I've gone from baby shoes
To combat boots
And one day
I'll leave home
I might just be famous
I don't know when I got the nerve to say this
But one day
Things will be different
Scared of change
Oh aren't we all?
My five year old self wouldn't recognize me at all
I'm on my way
But to where I do not know
I've gone from baby shoes
To combat boots
And one day
I'll leave home
I might just be famous
I don't know when I got the nerve to say this
But one day
Things will be different
Just a kid
Too young to make decisions
Does anyone truly know the way?
Or are we filled with precautions?
I'm on my way
But to where I do not know
I've gone from baby shoes
To combat boots
And one day
I'll leave home
I might just be famous
I don't know when I got the nerve to say this
But one day
Things will be different
I'm on my way
But to where I do not know
I've gone from baby shoes
To combat boots
And one day
I'll leave home
I might just be famous
I don't know when I got the nerve to say this
But one day
Things will be different
One day
Things will be different
And that's okay
We just don't know it yet
