They say I don't do enough

why they dont know how tuff

It is, not even a bit

sometimes i just want to quit

 

Im not allowed to say im depressed

they say im blessed

forget emotions, no put those asside

do your homework, dont talk back, they snide

 

They say i dont understand

so waiting til i do i stand

im segregated because im 17

im just a drama queen

 

They say make up your mind, while they yawn

im clueless, you people led me on

how am i supposed to choose my life

im just expected to be a wife

 

Lets run free

toes touching earth and hands touching trees

they say give up those daydreams

internally i scream
