lyrics

Well, I've been doing great
It's nice to know you really care
But I wish you would stop worrying
From all the way back there
You know college is pretty cool
I've made a lot of awesome friends
But I probably shouldn't tell you
All the crazy shit we did
I still dream of California
And beating up LA
Haven't lost all of my focus
It's just been delayed

But I'm fine
I'm still alive
For now

Oh, mama I tried
To be a good girl, one
Who didn't screw up sometimes
Didn't screw up at all
But that's not who I am
I'll sleep in till three
And be turned up by four
I'm just trying to have fun while I can
Oh, mama
I hope you understand

Sometimes I go so hard
That nobody wants my swag
It's been one too many times
My head's been in a bag
But I've tried to play it cool
Be the big man that I'm not
Oh, it's got me into trouble
So much that I forgot

But I'm fine
I'm still alive
For now

Oh, mama I tried
To be a good girl, one
Who didn't screw up sometimes
Didn't screw up at all
But that's not who I am
I'll sleep in till three
And be turned up by four
I'm just trying to have fun while I can
Oh, mama

When I'm twenty-seven
Will I still be sane
Will I die tomorrow
Just for one more drink
Sometimes I think I've lost it
And I don't feel like me
But I'm down for another
If it makes me forget everything
Everything
Everything
Everything

Oh, mama I tried
To be a good girl, one
Who didn't screw up sometimes
Didn't screw up at all
But that's not who I am
I'll sleep in till three
And be turned up by four
I'm just trying to have fun while I can
Oh, mama
I hope you understand
Understand
Understand
I hope you understand
I hope you understand
