Lukas Graham - 7 Years

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 was writing about everything I saw before me Once I was twenty years old
