Lyrics

Growing up isn’t something we can make happen when we want it to
But since we’re all growing up together I guess I’ll grow up
with you

We can take turns taking the reins
Lean on each other when we need some extra strength
We’ll never cave or we’ll never waver
We’ll always become braver and braver

We’ll dance like nobody’s there
We’ll dance without any cares
We’ll talk bout problems we share
We’ll talk bout things that ain’t fair
We’ll sing bout things we don’t know
We’ll sing to people and show
What it means to be young
And growing up

Under the table, we’ll whisper
in each other’s ears
We’ll share our hopes and dreams, and all our other
greatest fears
And when we get burned from
jumping in the fire
We’ll never tire, cause we’ll
always find ways to fly higher

I make as many good memories as I can
When there are nights I can’t sleep, it’s okay in the end
I know what I do now makes
me me
Wherever we go, wherever we
go we...

We’ll take the good with the bad
All of the times that we’ll have
Make every moment last
We’ll have each other’s backs
Cause in the end we don’t know
We don’t know where we will go
We don’t know, so
There’s still a little more
Growing up

I saw the Linda Lindas open for Jawbreaker last week and they killed it. Their energy was infectious and you could tell they were really, really enjoying the moment. I felt like I was witnessing these kids live out their dream and it was an incredible thing to witness.

[artjimenez]

What is amazing about the Lindas Lindas is their music draws people from all ages, yet without comprising their edginess. All substance. Pure rock and roll.

[casshle]

I absolutely love this! As a 29 year old Asian American, I feel so proud and full watching these gals. They’re so badass despite being so young! It’s awesome, such a great sound, they’re very talented and I can’t wait to hear more!

[mabewa]

I’m another middle aged punk rock person who really appreciates the spirit of this band. I hear the energy of the Ramones, the Dishrags, the Blue Hearts, Bikini Kill, Shonen Knife and Afrirampo here. You kids are helping me get something really cool: punk music will keep regenerating itself long after people my age are dead and gone. It’s a comforting thought!

[chiptovar]

Lucia sure knows how to write a hook. This song is gonna be stuck in my brain all day!

[ThatoneYoshimain]

I heard this in FH5 and instantly fell in love with this

[josephtorra]

I'm a 66 year old punk rocker. I love your music. Thanks for keeping the energy, spirit and dignity of the music alive.

[patriciasanvictores]

Okay, I have to admit, that closeup that showed their mascara matched their cat counterparts was my favorite. Absolutely adorable >w<

[michaelvincentgaddi]

"We''ll never cave or we'll never waver / We'll always become braver and braver" Best song lines I've heard in years ❤

[nicholasromig]

Living every teenage punk band's dream. awesome song, lots of heart.

[jackymckam]

I don't know why, every the Linda Lindas songs that Lucia sing for are always be my favorite.

[chemtrail]

Some of the best music is being released during these difficult times. Enjoy it. Spread love and keep those spirits high! Love each and everyone of you.

[jeffrice]

Love the music, the energy, the fun, the lyrics. Yes, this is coming from a 50+ old dude. Punk isn't dead, it's just doing homework.

[aesop]

Even if you’ve never been a punk rock fan you have to at least appreciate how fun this experience must be for these girls.

This song is really well produced and super catchy - I hope they just continue to blow up. 🤘🏻

[girllim]

Man, just look at them. They are full of energy, youth, and dreams. That's why we call rock'n roll as young music.

[-impala]

Dang! I'm just moving my feet like in 1980. Rock on you punks...you rebels of Rock, the world needs more Linda lindas touring with the Idles. Making music that people hear for miles away. God bless.

[baekhyunchambers]

This song deserves far more attention!

[SagnolTheGangster]

I really love punk rock but i didnt know this band till i played Forza. You guys have some amazing tracks there, dont stop what you do!

[edtietz]

Saw the Linda Lindas with Paramore a few years ago. They're young enough to be my kids. I wish I had a band like this when I was little to sing about the stuff I was going through.

[OMGBASS]

66 Years old here also. Age is just a number. You Girls ROCK!!! Love You all, don't stop, Changing, growing and Being You! God Bless You All!
