Get it all right, Got it, alright

September 4, 2026
Nothing wrong and nothing quite left You know you're young already all out of fight But babe, you're eighteen and that means you gotta Get it all right, got it, all right? Colleges, politics, degrees and credit scores Don't forget your suitcase on your way out the door Not sure what you're missing but it's not worth dirt anymore Slide or scuttle scuba or shuttle miss it and lose it or fight it and choose it don't miss this life and stay up all night Get it all right, got it all right? And you have lost the melted softness resting on your pillow You have not found how high you can jump Or found the love you buried below Meaning to use it later
