Just a young gun with a quick fuse
如一把容易走火的枪
I was uptight, wanna let loose
我容易焦躁 需要给自己松绑
I was dreaming of bigger things
我曾有许多大大的梦想
And wanna leave my own life behind
甚至曾想将自己的生命抛在一旁
Not a yes sir, not a follower
不做乖乖牌 不做跟风者
Fit the box, fit the mold
拒绝适应一切 适应模具

Kids were laughing in my classes
同班的孩子们都在笑我
While I was scheming for the masses
当我和那人群有所不同
Who do you think you are?
你以为你是谁啊
Dreaming 'bout being a big star
还梦想着成为超级巨星啊
You say you're basic, you say you're easy
就承认你的平凡 承认你想法简单吧
You're always riding in the back seat
你就是总在那后座拼命的傻瓜
 

Reynolds said the song is about how the obstacles in his life such as being “kicked” out of college pushed him to achieve success in music. Those obstacles created a great deal of anger in him that eventually gave birth to his “art”.

At the age of 13, while other classmates were playing sports or out partying, he was at home in his bedroom, writing his treatises (/'tri:tiziz/ 论文) and recording music.

"I'd just sit down with a mic and record something, whether it was about dealing with some heartbreak from some girl or being too skinny because I couldn't gain weight. Just stupid stuff. And that's the only way I know how to communicate — just through music — I felt like I could say things that I can't relay  (/'riːleɪ/ 传达) any other way."
