"When I Retire" lyrics

I hope I stay a tourist
Grow as a father
Learn as a student
And not get very bothered
Hope my voice is just as gentle as before

I hope I have a big house
One for all the accolades
Big shows, great days
Hope people love me
And I make my girl as happy as before

Hope I have good intentions
Sleep in on the weekends
Still enjoy occasions
When I'm not feeling it
I'm just as eager as before

Hope my friends are still healthy
Parents left happy
Got myself closure
Little girl in the backseat
I don't miss any games or any plays

Hope my fans still listen
Kept your attention
Forget about the hype learned to live in the moment
Hope my little girl found love and did well in school

Oh I hope I'm still making
Music in the basement
Not for someone else but for my family cause we made it
Oh I hope I threw away my stupid phone

We got a dog named Guppy
He was such a good boy
Put em down
Day before graduation comes around
I hope she knows how much she changed my life

Oh this is just life
Little by little get by
If think about it too much
Then it flies by
Stand up take a walk clear your mind
Trust me you'll be happy deep inside

Well this is just life
Little by little get by
If you think about it too much
It flies by
So stand up take a walk clear your mind
Trust me you'll be happy
Trust me you'll be happy

Well now I'm
I'm sitting on a chair
Wanna be a millionaire
I can feel it in the air
I swear we'll be
In a house tall as the trees
With all fancy machines
Our life will be a breeze
You'll see
I'll be standing on a podium
I'll sell my soul for anyone
Just to get a number one
Anything for anyone
Michael do you hear yourself
Put that mind up on a shelf
I hope you can remind yourself

Well this is just life
Little by little get by
If you think about it too much
It flies by
So stand up take a walk clear your mind
Trust me you'll be happy
Oh God please be happy
Deep inside
