17 Lyrics by Mocha

2018

[Verse 1: Mocha]

I think I had an epiphany
Adulthood is inevitable
I mean it's scary but a blessing though
Yeah it seems amazing and looks terrible
Our parents coo' , it can't be that unbearable
(Even if they lost limbs in the process?)
Even if they lost blood and tears in the process?
(Even if they lost all they friends in the process?)
Even if they lost important years in the process
All we hear is the process
You can't beat it, ain't no stoppin'
I was five like yesterday and now I have a resume
I used to wake and wanna play, now I wake and wanna bake
We all going our separate ways
Daily convos' pushed to weekends, all love, handle yo' business
Take care of yo' shit, gone head I ain't trippin'
Damn, I ain't seen my grandparents in a minute
I need call my mom more, I gotta call my siblings
Got a lot on my plate
Stopped eating steak
Went meatless one year but I dropped too much weight
Lost a couple friends 'cause they had too much hate
And I'm chill, I don't even like a dot on my slate
I met my twin flame, I went on real dates
I'm Mclovin, there's a permanent smile on my face
I take life a couple bowls a day
I really need to meditate
I can't believe I'm almost 1 8

[Chorus: Mocha]

Seventeen, seventeen
This is the edge of seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen
This is the edge of seventeen
Big world, big dreams
Big steps, class rings
New year, same me
New shit, new tingz
Seventeen, seventeen
This is the edge of seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen
This is the edge of seventeen
Big world, big dreams
Big steps, class rings
New year, same me
New shit, new tingz

[Verse 2: Mocha]

It's insane to me
I ain't mentally where I prayed
Working towards where I prayed to be
You talking shit ain't being frank with me
If I can't take it to the bank with me
You could write it down, You could swallow it
BOOHOO, let me find a pit for you to wallow in
I cried ten times this week, I'm still poppin' bitch
I feel like I'm forty-three, I should be partying
Man where the parties at?
I was a caterpillar, turned in a cocoon
My man out in Suisun
I tried to spread my wings and my family said it's too soon
You do what you do
And I'll do what I do
What I do don't concern you
I don't live for you
I'm not that exciting so I'm sorry If I bore you
We all tryna' figure it out
You're the worst too
Wanna kick it with a weirdo? Let me know
I'll grab my jellyfish net
And we can head out the door
I'm from Oakland (CA)
East side (All day)
Whole lotta diversity
A lot of love, A lot of hate
I wanna' experience
Don't need drama in the way
Youngin' wit' the options, I could probably move upstate
Of course I won't because the rent is ridiculous
(I speak In Jeul code, I'm never serious)
I wanna do great shit
Make great friends and take trips
Get my dreams to pay rent

[Chorus: Mocha]

Seventeen, seventeen
This is the edge of seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen
This is the edge of seventeen
Big world, big dreams
Big steps, class rings
New year, same me
New shit, new tingz
Seventeen, seventeen
This is the edge of seventeen
Seventeen, seventeen
This is the edge of seventeen
Big world, big dreams
Big steps, class rings
New year, same me
New shit, new tingz
