What Did You Expect? - Growing Up Lyrics

I have the luxury of having problems
Some that I can solve and others not so problematic in a way
These are my friends, this is our scene
This is my slate, I've wiped it clean

Never focused on things that didn't matter to me
Dropped out of high school, and in the end I still got my degree

And I am here today
I am here to say
Nothing will ever break me down
I am here to stay
Won't back down today
I'm not a lost cause like they say
I found family
This scene it made me
I was saved by punk rock can't you see?
I've been doing fine
May have walked the line
Flawed by creation or design
It's more than just a phase
And I may have come of age
I'm still just as fucked up as yesterday
I guess I found my place
From feeling out of place
I have lived the best and worst of days

I could never tell you
How much this really means to me
I could not explain
How much punk rock has given me
