Old Before Your Time Lyrics

Cover art for Old Before Your Time lyrics by Ray LaMontagne

This song is really about realizing how prideful we are when we were younger. I think this song really talks about how it was for the character to grow up (I was raised up poor and I wanted more, and maybe, I'm a little too proud, In lookin' back I see a kid who was just afraid,) and its basically a reflection on this persons life, and the people he met along the way, but some of them came in and out.
