Yet another song and musician that my brother Kyle has introduced me to. I absolutely love it. Great music, but the song itself has a resounding message I can relate to. The song is called "When I Was A Youngster" by Rizzle Kicks.
The song talks about being young and having big dreams, but growing up to have those dreams and ambitions dwindle, naturally. I don't always feel this way, but I am guilty of this feeling at times. I have told my closest friends before that I sometimes wish I could be a stay a husband. I sometimes want to make a career out of social justice and service. My dreams of being an athlete, a rock star, something big, have been dilute naturally as I have grown. I don't feel sad about it, because I think it is natural, but its just something to think about.
Granted, a lot of these feelings come out typically during the hardest stretch of the semester, and now the semester is over, I do not feel it, but it is all the same.
Oh by the way, I also love this song because Kyle says he could see me doing the dances that these guys do in the video. That made me happy. Me and my dance moves...
