Take my word little man

listen to me I'm you from a future time start to put effort you see before everything begins to decline take my word little man regret gonna make you bitter sad once upon a time in the old memory of mine was a boy coasting off of being fine just ok with the status quo even though I'm sure he could've done better if he wanted to things only seemed like a problem based on a breeze leading to answers so easily mind barely working hastily what if he tried to do it earnestly instead of riding the coattails dragging from the floor oh well pressing forward onto new trails what's in store for this boy in life let him choose his drive freewheeling has limits that aren't so high next stop along a lazy dim hazy line listen to me I'm you from a future time start to put effort you see before everything begins to decline take my word little man regret gonna make you bitter sad pass again through a time to when a plant was introduced then went to go induce a solid changed state of mind forever made to further a painful timeline grades started slipping low from a score getting high though I feel inclined and obliged to say I did well enough not to drop down without holding onto middle ground ain't the top but yet I'm proud sadly not enough to ring the sound of a parade years spent getting dazed how it never fazed until now became the present day losing confidence little bits away lower status from the slump yet to break hope to be a seed again gonna make this song reach a king's end leave a legacy for the next breathe listen to me I'm you from a future time start to put effort you see before everything begins to decline take my word little man regret gonna make you bitter sad
