Typical


Maybe I don't have much to write about,

inside my life and me,

I am typical, with standard living,

and a divorced family.

 

Yes, I probably am very guessable,

That white girl down the street.

With her sister and her mom,

how situationally sweet.

 

Even at school, I have a type.

The try-hard who never fails.

I have one best friend and a boyfriend,

I get college letters in the mail.

 

Yes, maybe I match a stereotype,

that everyone wants to break.

But who am I to shake this mold,

when I perfectly fit the make?
