Nobody lookin' at me
Little boy by the trampoline
Neighbor dog barking at me
Solo singin' in the backyard
Little boy talking to the breeze
In the shade of the pine trees
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I can be myself
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
That is how I felt
When I was nine years old
I knew better than I do now
Before I was told
That I had to figure it out
Didn't sing because you were watching
Didn't need my song to be sold
When I was nine years old
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Up high, swinging my feet
Little boy on a rock wall
I was scared that I might fall
But it was worth it to me
A little boy in the sunrise
Saw a bigger plan written in the sky
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I knew who I was then
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And I don't wanna forget
When I was nine years old
I knew better than I do now
Before I was told
That I had to figure it out
Didn't sing because you were watching
Didn't need my song to be sold
When I was nine years old
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
♪
Now all eyes looking at me (hey hey)
Not the little boy in the backyard
Yeah, but he hasn't gone far
Reminding me to be
To be in awe at the moment
Yeah, that boy isn't gone yet
That is how I felt
When I was nine years old
I knew better than I do now
Before I was told
That I had to figure it out
Didn't sing because you were watching
Didn't need my song to be sold
When I was nine years old
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I can be myself
I could be myself
