Young and Dumb
when your young you do all kinds of dumb things
you live and you love
you forgive and you forget
some people aren't that lucky to love, forgive or forget
some girls sacrifice everything they are selfishly willing to give
to someone who won't give anything in return
some boys chase after the wrong people
who end up leading them in the wrong directions
when your young you do all kinds of dumb things
you end up falling in love with the boy who broke your phone during gym
he ends up getting shot for the guy who took his wallet the other day
she ends up throwing up because she can't stand eating anymore
those two shy girls you see at school just got arrested for stealing
the girls who sits in the corner in math class just bought drugs in the alley
if you focus on all the bad things in your life
how will you ever live?
when your young you do all kinds of dumb things
