I am still a kid


I have always been “old”

Always been bold

Solid heart 

Pure gold

Won’t let pain pull me apart

Try my best to make everything I do a work of art

Every day is a new start

All I want to do is my part

I try to learn every day

and remember to be nice in all that I say

As the years go by

I hold my head up high

and

remember to reach for the sky

keep working till the day I die

Always try to never say a lie

and as the years have gone by,

I remember to stay a kid and to always ask the question why
