"Kid" lyrics - STEPHEN WILSON JR.

STEPHEN WILSON JR.
"Kid"

Carrying the weight of world uphill
Keep on running so you don't stand still
Ice cream meltin' on the red dirt race track
Walking through the halls with a bullet proof backpack

Ain't old enough to buy your own cold beer
Y'all ain't the ones who make the rules 'round here
Eat your peas and say your prayers
Hush your mouth and brush your hair

[Chorus:]
Who do you think you are, kid?
Bare feet on the tar, kid
Crashin' daddy's car, kid
Grow up fast like your momma did
Teenage baby had a baby
All them dreams turn into maybe
Maybe's now a healthy never
Forever young ain't young forever
Ain't that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke's on you
Who are you trying to kid?

Fighting with a cast 'round a half broke wrist
Skin on the road from a handlebar twist
Can't make sense of the story they gave us
Money won't do it, but the Lord might save us
All sins are forgiven, Jesus on the walls
Hell, Uncle Mike's in heaven and there ain't no Santa Claus

[Chorus:]
Who do you think you are, kid?
Bare feet on the tar, kid
Crashin' daddy's car, kid
Grow up fast like your momma did
Teenage baby had a baby
All them dreams turn into maybe
Maybe's now a healthy never
Forever young ain't young forever
Ain't that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke's on you
Who are you trying to kid?

[Bridge:]
Who do you think you are, kid?
Who do you think you are, kid?
You ain't bound to go far, kid
Tell me how'd you get that scar, kid
Sorry life's so hard, kid

[Chorus:]
Ain't that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke's on you
Who are you, who are you
Who are you trying to kid?
