Lyrics:
Once I was seven years old my mama told me,
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
Once I was seven years old

It was a big, big world but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure

Once I was eleven years old my daddy told me,
Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely
Once I was eleven years old

I always had that dream like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me
‘Cause only those I really love will ever really know me

Once I was twenty years old my story got told
Before the morning sun when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old

I only see my goals I don't believe in failure
‘Cause I know the smallest voices they can make it major
I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave I hope I'll see you later

Once I was twenty years old my story got told
I waswriting 'bout everything I saw before me
Once I was twenty years old

Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
We'vetraveled around the world and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old

I'm still learning about life, my woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs and I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me, some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind, my brother I'm still sorry

Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month

Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
Soon I'll be sixty years old

I remember when I was 7 years old.. Now I'm 32 and have 3 kids between the ages of 2-4.. Life is a weird thing.. Life is too fast.. Life is too short..

[JakeGlobox]

This song still hits different. Life is short, time flies by. Make the most of it.

[ForeverHr]

My little brother sang this song to the top of lungs when he was a young child. This song inspired him to make music. His life was cut short June 19 2024 at 19 years of age. Listening to this song will always forever keep me close to him 🙏🏾💜 #longlivesamuel

Nostalgia is the best and the cruelest feeling...

[DaviOnnat]

I remember I was 12 in the car with my siblings and my dad riding otw back home from Philly and this song popped up on his playlist, listening to this now makes me appreciate how much my dad did for me before his passing two months ago, i miss him dearly.

Lukas, when this came out I was homeless, in and out of jail, and unhealthy. Now I have a house, a good job, and a husband. This song and “Clover Cage - The Secret Of Life” are the two songs that helped with my depression. I just want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together. I love you 💕

[AVN-sweeper]

I was born on December 16th and when this song was posted on youtube I watched it on my 7th birthday. It's a beautiful memory

Yesterday is history
Tomorrow is a mystery
And today is a gift
That's why it's called present
-Master Oogway

[sleepygirl]

Can't wait for this song to be 7 year's old.

7 years
See you again
Somewhere only we know
Let her go
these songs are just the ones you could cry to at any age thinking about the wonderful time and life you spent. Future generations don't let these songs die at any cost these music are the closest things to time machine we currently own.
