Don't Know Where To Go


Youngest of five, first to go to a university Knowing where my life is going perfectly Only one thing standing in my way  Just my mother, if i may  She’s wanting to keep me close by  Time’s going by; it’s my turn to fly Not ready to let go, trying to keep me home Mother please let me go, try and see that I am grown I need to choose my own path  Knowing in the end I’ll face your wrath This is something i must do For me and not for you It is time for me to go Knowing soon, I’ll find my home.
