Adults


Adults wonder why

Wonder why kids try

Because we are told

It gets quite old

I just can’t take it

Left and right I just won’t make it

Please tell me why

I need to try

Why can’t I just go and fly

Cuz I might fall

Well what's the point at all

Let me fall

Let me be me

Why do adults care

I will make it big

Just wait and see
