Details

• 'I Been Young' is about the struggles of leaving youth behind. The music is made in 2023 but has an early '90s Madchester sound as if the youth Clanton sings about is in the past.
  
  The song opens with immature lyrics "hanging on to every grudge", but later there are chords that sound like an epiphany and the lyrics become more experienced "wrong enough to say I'm sorry, owning up to things I can't undo". It's as if the singer matures as the song goes on.
