Mom Dad Please
No, you can't walk home alone
No Luis, she can't learn how to ride a bike, she'll get hurt
No Calista, you can't join boxing, you'll get hurt
Every guy friend they come to meet is my love interest
Can that please change?
Why does being a girl need to mean, be pretty and act pretty?
The way I grew up is what I came to be
Why does my dad need to make the tough decisions?
When will being a girl not signify being weak?
Why did I need to please my mother and be that?
Being this sn't what I want to be
This is what I grew up and came to be
I'm not supposed to be this mom, i'm better than that
I'm not an object mom, it's not supposed to be like this
