9teen
David Hugo Lyrics

Turned nineteen and I dropped out
At the age of nineteen, I decided to drop out of school.

For a few months, in my hometown
I stayed in my hometown for a few months after dropping out.

Cause I'm moving on, I'm picking better things
I'm moving on from my old life and trying to choose better things for myself.

Got a load of old things but I'm up now
I have a lot of old baggage, but I'm doing well now.

Keep your head on straight, don't slow down
I need to keep focused and not get distracted from my goals.

We stay up too late but we don't go out
Even though we stay up too late, we don't go out and do anything exciting.

My new friends are fake, they all talk too loud
The new friends I have made seem fake and talk too loudly.

I got one more year
I have one more year until I turn twenty.

Don't wanna rush cuz I'm nineteen
I don't want to rush things because I'm still young and have time.

But I don't give a (woah)
But at the same time, I don't really care about societal expectations.

Cause I'm finding
Because I'm still figuring things out.

Everybody hears your matching set
Everyone wants you to fit into their mold and be like them.

But I want it so bad
But at the same time, I have my own desires and ambitions.

I don't grew up in the nineteen
I didn't grow up in the 90s.

But I don't give a (woah)
But again, I don't really care about fitting into societal norms.

I don't wanna be your matching set
I don't want to conform to society's expectations and be like everyone else.

But I wanna be so bad
But I do want to achieve my own goals and dreams.

Turned nineteen, tried to move out
When I turned nineteen, I tried to move out of my parents' house.

But I don't got no money or enough clout
But I didn't have the money or the influence to do so.

I'll be writing said songs on my mom's house
So instead, I wrote songs in my mom's house.

Until my song went and gonna take oh (oh)
Until one of my songs became popular and changed my life for the better.

I'm just tryna get the bag tonight
I'm just trying to make money tonight.

I'm just tryna get some friends to like me
I'm just trying to make new friends and be accepted.

I'm just tryna get the camera light
I'm just trying to get famous and be in the spotlight.

I'm just tryna get some girls to like me
I'm just trying to attract attention from girls and feel desirable.

Stay up
Stay awake and keep going.

But we don't go out
But we don't go out and experience things outside of our comfort zone.

New friends
New people I have met.

They all talk too loud
They are overly loud and attention-seeking.

But I don't give a (woah)
But I still don't care about societal expectations and norms.

But I wanna be so bad
But I still have my own desires and ambitions that I want to achieve.
