The Best Is Yet To Come
Hinder猀 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I learned my first lesson
While trying to get to the next base
When I slipped passed her waist
She smacked my hand away
Then I got a slap in the face
If I could go back in time
Love the dumb things we do when we're young
But the best is yet to come
My first drinking lesson
I followed all my friends
Stole liquor went down to the lake
Weed mixed with whiskey
Hell I got so dizzy was more than my stomach could
Take
Go for it
Run toward it
Dive in head first
Live life with no regret
Put your heart out there
Don't be scared you might get hurt
My last high school lesson
Scared of graduation
Tipped a few back and showed up too late
Well my mom got mad hell my dad he just laughed
And said, son I have done the same thing

My first make-out session
The first time I kissed someone romantically
I learned my first lesson
I learned something from that experience
While trying to get to the next base
While attempting to progress physically in our relationship
When I slipped passed her waist
When I accidentally touched her inappropriately
She smacked my hand away
She physically rejected my advance
Then I got a slap in the face
I received a physical punishment for my action
If I could go back in time
If I had the ability to travel through time
Wouldn't change a damn thing in my life
I would not alter anything that has happened in my past
Love the dumb things we do when we're young
I appreciate the foolish actions we take while we are inexperienced
But the best is yet to come
The most satisfying part of my life is yet to happen
My first drinking lesson
The first time I drank alcohol with my peers
I followed all my friends
I imitated the behavior of those around me
Stole liquor went down to the lake
I acquired alcoholic beverages and consumed them at the water's edge
Weed mixed with whiskey
I consumed marijuana and alcohol simultaneously
Hell I got so dizzy was more than my stomach could Take
I became severely disoriented due to my level of intoxication
Go for it
Pursue your dreams fearlessly
Run toward it
Approach your desires actively
Dive in head first
Immerse yourself completely into what you pursue
Live life with no regret
Live a life without feeling remorse for unfulfilled endeavors
Put your heart out there
Expose your emotions and vulnerabilities freely
Don't be scared you might get hurt
Do not fear potential emotional pain from exposing oneself
My last high school lesson
The final experience I had in high school
Scared of graduation
Afraid of the responsibilities and uncertainty of graduation
Tipped a few back and showed up too late
I drank alcohol before attending my graduation and arrived late
Well my mom got mad hell my dad he just laughed
My mother expressed disapproval while my father found my behavior amusing
And said, son I have done the same thing
My father revealed that he had previously made similar mistakes as mine
