A Letter To My Younger Self (Acoustic Version)

[Verse 1]

I know you're scared leavin' this home

But you're not that used to livin' alone

You're not that used to speakin' your mind

You're too used to waiting in line

For others, that's okay, don't think about it

Every second that you do, you dude, you don't doubt it

Every minute that you let them win, it's time wasted

Every hour you're not present, I'm sayin', I'm sayin', ah

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't get too far in your own head when you shout

We'll smile in front of all the things we used to worry about

And I know it may not seem like it, but we figured out

How to live on the run when your heart weighs a ton, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

I wrote a letter to my younger self

I hope you read it when you don't feel well

I hope this helps

I hope this helps

When things around you feel they can't get worse

If you won't describe the pain and how it hurts

I hope this helps

I hope this helps (Yeah)

[Verse 2]

Yeah, it's okay, continue to pray

You don't have a plan you will one day

Don't have a job you'll get one soon

A wife and a house you'll get that too

All that you gain you'll equally lose

You'll toughen your brain you'll get out the blues

Realize high school things get a little less serious

And your heart gets curious

For a little something, for a life of loving

For a life of love, love, love, love

For a little something, for a life of loving

For a life of love

Two, three, four

[Chorus]

I wrote a letter to my younger self

I hope you read it when you don't feel well

I hope this helps

I hope this helps

When things around you feel they can't get worse

If you won't describe the pain and how it hurts

I hope this helps

I hope this helps

[Pre-Chorus]

Don't get too far in your own head when you shout

We'll smile in front of all the things we used to worry about

And I know it may not seem like it, but we figured out

How to live on the run when your heart weighs a ton, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

I wrote a letter to my younger self

I hope you read it when you don't feel well

I hope this helps (Yeah)

I hope this helps

One, two, three, four

I wrote a letter to my younger self

I hope you read it when you don't feel well

I hope this helps

I hope this helps

When things around you feel they can't get worse

If you won't describe the pain and how it hurts

I hope this helps

I hope this helps
