She Me I
Sixteen
Sixteen
Sixteen
She was
They said
I didn't

She Me I
Doin' it
Screwin' it
Losin' it
Mistakes made
Baby growing
Mom becoming

She Me I
Born on Sixteen
Growing to sixteen
Expected expecting sixteen
I am Me
Working to achieve
Not a mommy to be

She Me I
Sixteen
Sixteen
Sixteen
Don't do it
Don't risk it
Don't live it

We all know much of writing is left up to the reader to decipher but incase anyone does'nt completely understand what this is about; it's about my mom who had me at sixteen, how i was raised being told I'd be no better than her, and how i broke that assumption.
