First Time Living Lyrics – Alli Walker

I used to say I’d never
Cause I’d know better
Than to raise my voice like you did
Every time you’d lose it
You were doing your best
Two kids no rest
Yeah I’m seeing it now from your side
I think you did alright

Don’t we all need a little grace
Another one more try again
A lot of things you woulda changed
If woulda known what you know now back then
Gettin’ older makes you wiser
Doesn’t mean you won’t make mistakes
I shouldn’t be so hard on you
It’s your first time living too
It’s your first time living too

I was working two jobs
Just trying to make ends meet
And I had y’all way too young
Just a baby having babies

You were a handful
When you turned 15
Then when you met a boy and you moved away
I lost a piece of me

Don’t we all need a little grace
Another one more try again
A lot of things you woulda changed
If you woulda known what you know now back then
Gettin’ older makes you wiser
Doesn’t mean you won’t make mistakes
I shouldn’t be so hard on you
It’s your first time living too

First times hard to get through
First time down this road
First time learning as we go

Don’t we all need a little grace
Another one more try again
A lot of things I woulda changed
If I woulda known what I know now back then
Getting older makes you wiser
Doesn’t mean you won’t make mistakes
I shouldn’t be so hard on you
It’s your first time living too
It’s my first time living too
