Spencer Crandall - 7 And 70

I chase the 9 to 5, white picket life, tryna make my parents proud
I used to cut my hair and change what I'd wear
To be the kinda guy would write home about
I've been a people pleaser
Never putting me first but
The older that I'm getting
I finally know who I'm trying to impress 'cause

If I could talk to a younger me
I'd wanna be the man that he wants to be
I'd wanna tell him that he got more
Than everything he prayed for
And if I walked with the man that I'll become
I'd want him to be proud of all we've done
There's only two opinions that matter most to me (matter most to me)
And that's me at seven and seventy

I wanna see his innocent eyes, see our name up in lights
And tell him one day, "You're gonna do this"
And I want to mean that's grey, to just laugh and say
"Boy, you ain't even seen half of it"
I wanna see their smiles when I tell them all about my life

'Cause if I could talk to a younger me
I'd wanna be the man that he wants to be
I'd wanna tell him that he got more
Than everything he prayed for
And if I walked with the man that I'll become
I'd want him to be proud of all we've done
There's only two opinions that matter most to me (matter most to me)
And that's me at seven and seventy

I tried being who everybody else wanted me to be
But now there's only two opinions that matter most to me

'Cause if I could talk to a younger me
I'd wanna be the man that he wants to be
I'd wanna tell him that he got more
Than everything he prayed for
And if I walked with the man that I'll become
I'd want him to be proud of all we've done
There's only two opinions that matter most to me (matter most to me)
And that's me at seven and seventy
Yeah, seven and seventy
Seven and seventy
