Lyrics and translation
Original
Yeah, whenever you're ready.
I turned thirty-four today. The hair in my beard is turning gray.
I've always had a fear of change, but lately I'm okay with it, 'cause I like the way it feels.
The number of Shaquille O'Neal. Still can't dunk though, that's for real.
It's time that I start facing it. 'Cause I've been scared of getting older.
I'm only good at being young.
But I got a head that's on my shoulders.
And a heart that's full of love.
I thought I'd have it all by now, but that's okay, 'cause it turns out, that I've got all I need and nothing more.
Life looks pretty good at thirty-four.
And I'm not sure what it all means to double down on seventeen.
When all the years lived in between were gone before I even knew.
But I'll keep doing the best I can with the greatest band in Birmingham.
And I believe that who I am, I am because of all of you. I'm scared that I'm not any closer.
'Cause all the best songs have been sung.
But as long as I keep moving forward.
There will be another one.
I thought I'd have it all by now, but that's okay, 'cause it turns out, that I've got all I need and nothing more.
Life looks pretty good at thirty-four.
I turned thirty-four today. The sky above's no longer gray.
So if I've got something to say, it's time that I start saying it.
'Cause I've been scared of getting older.
Nobody is forever young.
But when the day is done, I get to hold her.
And that'll always be enough.
I thought I'd have it all by now, but that's okay, 'cause it turns out, that I've got all I need, that's for sure.
Life looks pretty good at thirty-four.
