"Milestones" lyrics

You got the dream girl, you don't get bad days
You gotta sing, don't matter it's your bro's birthday
Don't remember that 30-minute set that played
Mother's Day missing Mama's kitchenette
Checking 'no' on another invitation
Best friend's wedding and a college graduation
For a few fans at a few state fairs
It's an answered prayer

'Cause they say I made it
That's my song they're playing
They'll throw you in, say sink or swim, see how far you go
She's a real go-getter
Got that first gold record
Time it flies just like that running river rolls
But this four-wheel spinning
Dream I'm living got me feeling like I'm skipping milestones

I wanna say I do, and have a family
A lot more than I wanna win a Grammy
Don't get me wrong, I love it, I'm grateful
I just miss having dinner at a table
I got a plate full

They say I made it
That's my song they're playing
They'll throw you in, say sink or swim, see how far you go
She's a real go-getter
Got that first gold record
Time it flies just like that running river rolls
But this four-wheel spinning
Dream I'm living got me feeling like I'm skipping milestones

Skipping sermons from a home church pew
And what twenty-something usually do
You'll burn bright, but you might burn out
I'm learning fast to slow it down

They say I made it
My song they're playing
They'll throw you in, say sink or swim, see how far you go
She's a real go-getter
Got that first gold record
Time it flies just like that running river rolls
But this four-wheel spinning
Dream I'm living got me feeling like I'm skipping milestones
Oh, skipping milestones
Milestones
