Yesterday felt like my graduation
Now some of those kids have got their own
Been a while since I took a vacation
It's been a while since I really let go

But when I look back
Thinking I could've done this
Or I could've tried that
But when I look back
'Cause it's going by fast

I'ma call my mother
It's been a while since I've been home
Take a trip in the summer
See all the lights in Tokyo
Get lost in the desert
Just to see what I can find
So when it's my time, I
Smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)
Smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)

Yesterday felt like my first day working
Now I'm not the youngest on the clock
Been a while since days were just for burning
It's been a while since I threw back a shot

But when I look back
Thinking I could've done this
Or I could've tried that
But when I look back
'Cause it's going by fast

I'ma call my mother
It's been a while since I've been home
Take a trip in the summer
See all the lights in Tokyo
Get lost in the desert
Just to see what I can find
So when it's my time, I
Smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)
Smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)

There's been a couple times that I fell in love
But a couple time it just ain't enough
There's been a couple joints that I couldn't share
But I guess I gotta start somewhere

I'ma call my mother
It's been a while since I've been home
Take a trip in the summer
See all the lights in Tokyo
Get lost in the desert
Just to see what I can find
So when it's my time, I
I'm smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)
I'm smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)

I'm smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)
I'm smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)
I'm smiling when I die (when I die, when I die)
