[English]

I'm scared of growing up

I'm scared of growing old

I'm scared of falling short

I'm scared of the unknown

Oh, I'm burning on the edge

But I know right where I stand

I know the road ahead will make me who I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

I was lost, out of hope, I was caving in

Overcome by the waves, I was crashing in

Took a chance on the other side of fear, I found

I can make it out

Even if I'm scared of growing up

I'm scared of growing old

I'm scared of falling short

I'm scared of the unknown

Oh, I'm burning on the edge

But I know right where I stand

I know the road ahead will make me who I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

There was sticks, there were stones, there was barricades

I was trapped in my mind, threw the key away

They say this and that behind my back, not to my face

They wanna see me break

Even if I'm scared of growing up

I'm scared of growing old

I'm scared of falling short

I'm scared of the unknown

Oh, I'm burning on the edge

But I know right where I stand

I know the road ahead will make me who I am

I am, I am, I am (whoo!)

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am (I am)

Will it ever pass? This feeling

Some nights, I never know, I never know

But if I can fight this feeling

I'll see silver and gold, silver and gold

Will it ever pass? This feeling

Some nights, I never know, I never know

But if I can fight this feeling

I'll see silver and gold, silver and gold

Even if I'm scared of growing up

I'm scared of growing old

I'm scared of falling short

I'm scared of the unknown

Oh, I'm burning on the edge

But I know right where I stand

I know the road ahead will make me who I am

I am, I am, I am (I am)

I am, I am, I am (I am)

I am, I am, I am (I am)

I am, I am, I am (I am)

I am, I am, I am (c'mon)

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am

I am, I am, I am
