Lyrics:
Carrying the weight of the world uphill
Keep on running so you don’t stand still
Ice cream meltin’ on the red dirt race track
Walking through the halls with a bullet proof backpack
Ain’t old enough to buy your own cold beer
Y’all ain’t the ones who make the rules ‘round here
Eat your peas and say your prayers
Hush your mouth and brush your hair
Who do you think you are kid
Bare feet on the tar kid
Crashing daddy’s car kid
Grow up fast like your momma did
Teenage baby had a baby
All them dreams turn into maybe
Maybe’s now a healthy never
Forever young ain’t young forever
Ain’t that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke’s on you
Who are you
Trying to
Kid
Fighting with a cast ‘round a half broke wrist
Skin on the road from a handlebar twist
Can’t make sense of the story they gave us
Money won’t do it but the Lord might save us
All sins are forgiven
Jesus on the walls
Hell Uncle Mike’s in heaven
And there ain’t no Santa Claus
Who do you think you are kid
Bare feet on the tar kid
Crashing daddy’s car kid
Grow up fast like your momma did
Teenage baby had a baby
All them dreams turn into maybe
Maybe’s now a healthy never
Forever young ain’t young forever
Ain’t that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke’s on you
Who are you
Trying to
Kid
Who do you think you are, kid
Who do you think you are kid… You ain’t bound to go far kid…
Tell me how’d you get that scar, kid?… Sorry life’s so hard kid…
Ain’t that the truth about the truth
Will put a world of hurt on you
A broomstick poke in the bike spokes
The joke’s on you
Who are you
Who are you
Who are you
Trying to
Kid

One of the best performers and song writers on this planet. I just love his work.
Same!
I agree brother. This guy just blows me away. Love every single song. Phenomenal, once in a generation kinda talent
Great song writer absolutely , and such a difference voice, I really like it
Powerful song about, to me, the screwed up World our kids are inheriting from us. As a Father of teenagers, this one hit hard. I hope one day they’ll forgive us.
@@virginiacruiser.7989Amen brother. I feel the same as you.
Stephen Wilson Jr. can tell a more poignant, vivid story with only a weathered guitar and a voice in 3 minutes than most Hollywood directors can in 3 hours with A list actors and an unlimited budget.
Amen Brother!
That's no normal weathered old guitar. It's an epic instrument blessed by the God's! The sound of his guitar is moving. Gives me goosebumps!
Well said.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let this man take over the radio. Please. We deserve this. He deserves it.
This guy/song deserves a hell of a lot more views than he has.
“Hell, Uncle Mike’s in Heaven & there ain’t no Santa Claus…” Hits me every time.
"All them dreams turned into maybe, and maybe now is a healthy never. Forever young aint young forever..." were punches right to the face.
FACTS WITH TEARS ROLLIN DOWN MY FACE
I’m on my 5th go… This dude pulls out our souls. The nastalgia is just about too overwhelming. He sings of a time in America that is long gone🥲
You got that right. I miss the good ol days, now everything is inverted, people are soft and too shiny, boys are girls,egg I think I catch my drift. How did we(wholesome ignorance) let so much infiltrate our everything? Well I've been up nights looking for the exact word. DISTRACTION! that's my final answer lol. This next group of young adults are gonna have an eye opener. 🤦
Hey I'm 29 getting ready to be 30 and I can relate to almost every one of his songs so far.
Plus I'm from Central Indiana
All of his songs are like this. Listen like 4-10 times in a row
30 in August couldnt agree more@@ironicheroism6928
This cat is a generational talent, and he’s singing in a bunk bed with what appears to be a monitor when you have little kids. It just fits the narrative. Dude rips your heart out.
Feels like hes singing my life
All them dreams turn in maybes. Maybes now a health never. Forever young ain’t young forever.
My favorite lyrics on the album
Legitimately some of my all time favorite lyrics now
Yup a solid grouping here....i like the lyric on my fathers son...."the tree don't grow far from the apple! SWJ is a master personificator!
Aint that the truth about the truth
@@t4o8ny Me too buddy. The ugly truth my friend.
Son of dad is an incredible album
This man's songs are the best stories since Waylon.. I said what I said.
100 %
I'm from Texas and I ain't hating that.
You sir are definitely criminally underrated!!!!
You are the BEST singer songwriter out right now! Love your music brother, keep on keeping on...
lol
I bawled my fucking eyes out to this song a few times before I could listen all the way through. Hit me hard. Wasn’t ready for that. 😅
Same😢
You and me both brother
John Denver would be a fan
More like Zevon would have been a fan, assuming we're naming genius songwriters who wore clear aviators and had well-defined nasolabial folds.
Vocals reminiscent of Eddie Vedder. Solid joint.
Your tunes are phenomenal.
“Maybe is now a healthy never” crushed me…
Me and my dog listen to you each night
Haha me and mine do too. She love him
Absolutely the most talented songwriter and performer in many years.
I agree. I'm glad he quit his job and pursued this dream of his. Hopefully it's coming true for him as clearly we're all dumbfounded by him and he's a fully fledged artist now, one would assume anyway
Dude plays tf out that guitar so nonchalantly. An sings with feeling. This is real music an he deserves more recognition. Shows how fake the world has become. Got to rap about drugs crime or fast women. Hate modern times..
I’ve listened to the album on loop countless times. While every song is phenomenal, this one steals the cake for me. Makes me cry every time I listen to it. “How’d you get that scar kid?” Stephen, you are a once in a lifetime artist and an absolute master of the craft.
Why do i cry everytime he sings?! Steven gives voice to all those buried unspoken good and painful events of growing up, and coming down
I always look forward to your music! 🤘 Make Indiana proud!
Gold. Perfect.
Every time he says "sorry life's so hard kid" I hear myself, in my head, saying that to my son, while simultaneously hearing it from my father, who passed away just a few months ago.
On a side note, Lori Mckenna appears to be credited with co-writing this song. The lyrics actually caused me to look and see if she had some hand in this. It's an amazing song.
Unreal!! Your songwriting blows me away!! And the sound you got created with that guitar is something else!! Forever a fan!
I was like…jeez this feller is a callahan too lol STEPHEN WILSON JR IS PHENOMENAL!!!
Most underrated for sure. Every song hits my soul and brings back memories.
Incredible, as always. Thank you for every note, every line and every song.
Thank you for creating such real and beautiful music for us! One love! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t be a fan. Great vocals and a great song this is a keeper.
Generational talent !!
I'm almost 54 and this man has captured my heart and soul with his amazing music and lyrics and after almost giving up on music which today is rubbish I have a renewed love for it after listening to Stephen, thanks mr Wilson for keeping it real, I truly appreciate it.
I listen to this song over and over every day. It hasn't lost a second of magic. Gives me goosebumps each time, and waters up my eyes. One of the greatest most touching songs I've heard in my life.
SUCH AN AWESOME SONG! SWJ, you rock, my friend!!!
Really hits home right now
The lyrics are top of the world in every song, so pure and so true, takes you back to exactly where you were in the world in every song and relive it for a moment .. thanks for the time travel travels Stephen ... Love from Australia
My artist of the year vote right here.
Totally ❤
That chorus is a lyrical masterpiece. I write songs.. I might quit now
Thank you RUclips algorithm for introducing me to this man and his music.
His voice and songs always touch me, I haven't had that with an artist for a long time. Just beautiful.
This guy is so underrated!!!! I just remember he’s the same guy that sang year to be young and he knows how to stir up your soul.. truly knows how to take you back through your own life good and bad nostalgia and that’s what real music does hell that’s what real art does period
Most amazing song writer. Thank you.. your lyrics run deep
Literally found your channel by accident through this video and it just came out not even an hour ago. Absolute magic of a song!
God damn. It’s rare you hear something like this. A song that tells a different story to each person, that gets better every time you hear it
This man is a legend please share his work with everyone 👌
I just recently discovered this man and his music from tiktok. First artist in ages to actually make me feel something. I cannot stop listening. He's one of the few people who rlare actually better live than in studio.
I love the open chords and nylon string sound, and obviously Stephen’s voice and lyrics! So good
I just saw him at Railbird , absolutely amazing!!! Rock on Stephen Wilson Jr
Holy f-k!!! Why have I never heard of this guy? Heard “Hometown” on Fire Country and it brought me down a rabbit hole that led me here… where I’ve stopped and pushed replay four times now. Wow. Just… wow. Heart and brain in a blender kinda wow. This joint is a journey back through life.
Absolutely awesome. My favorite musician ever! We all love SWJ! Keep up the astonishing work!!
A true poet. I can't explain to my wife why he makes cry.
The expression on his face at the end, tells me a lot about this song. 💔📿
This man is so talented! The best singer/songwriter/ventriloquist ever!!
Ventriloquist? 😂 is it because he hardly moves his mouth? As I can the resemblance there hehe
@@GutLordLarry yea lol. He's a fantastic singer, but I think it's hilarious that he barely moves his mouth.
Caught it on my morning scroll, now I'm 😭 no control. Good shit.
💯
Just discovered Steven today. Simply incredible.
One of the most well written songs I’ve heard in a long time.
Only the fourth song I've listened to of his (fathers son made me cry , gotta admit) but every one so damn far is just unbelievable
Amazing Stephen, love this version
Looking forward to seeing you in Belfast
Makes my eyes fill up with nostalgia…and I love it..I love this whole fucking vibe

Thats the truth about the truth!! God bless!

Amazing one of the best talent I've seen on Jules Holland TV show in Portsmouth UK. Amazing lyrics and plucking skills.
Once again, perfect lyrics. ❤
Another absolute masterpiece. Inspirational and entertaining in so many ways. Wondering how that song just cleared my childhood crap out in one listen 🤷♂️🙏
The fact you mention only Jesus can save you, Amen ❤
Every track just gets better. Thanks Stephen

Heard this song through a story on FB messenger that someone had posted mins ago from this comment. Came on RUclips music to do my search and found it. Became an instant fan and looked for shows near by. I’m from California, please make shows in the west coast. I would love to see you play in person live . The frequency in this song hit a spot that left a mark 💯
Outstanding songwriter and performer, powerful, personal, confessional

Brilliant, thank you Stephen!
This song is so damn beautiful. Thanks for adding music to the soundtrack of my life. 👊✌️
I left on NCL Midland Last Resort out of Miami , I went to hear Orvile Peck & Midland. I saw Stephen for the first time on the ship. I fell in love with his voice, music, and words to his music. What a awesome time. Thanks for the terrific music.
