Gang banger, ten years pass Sneakin' smokes, skippin' class Instead of lunch, you're packin' heat Instead of friends, you make enemies
Winds of change are blowin' strong What will we do when you're gone?
You're growing up too fast Slow down or you might not last Take a look at what you're doin' Your life, you might ruin
Doin' lines and barely twelve You've barely learned to love yourself Instead of hope, you're full of doom Sniffin' drugs in the girls bathroom
Winds of change are blowin' strong What will we do when you're gone -- when you're gone?
You're growing up too fast Slow down or you might not last Take a look at what you're doin' Your life, you might ruin
Who's to blame For all the choices that You make In this world we've made
You're growing up too fast Slow down or you might not last Take a look at what you're doin' Your life, you might ruin
You're growing up too fast (You're growing up too fast) You're growing up too fast (Way too fast now) You're growing up too fast (You gotta slow down) You're growing up too fast (Way too fast)
