15 year olds


 i come to notice that not all guys maybe nice and sweet

but growing up hearing that it maybe ok to cheat

almost every girl pregnant at 15

first time in the car on the backseat

soon as he found out her number got blocked and delete

going alone to the doctors getting ready for the heartbeat

almost every poor kid wants to be a thug

on the corner of the streets selling drugs

had to kill someone for the gang

getting locked up with no one to blame

mama of the kid who got killed 

getting stressed over funeral bills

all these kids at 15 just want to hurry and grow up

as things get hard, all they want to do is give up
