Life through a Teen's eyes
Recession it maybe for the adults living heck for us
We are at the age where life is no longer a joy
But a reminder of how this isn’t the worst of the deal
Everywhere you turn there is someone getting high, drunk, or killed
Life is no longer the virtue it once was, waking up to smiles
Now we wake up to screaming; parents yelling we got to go here and there
And that’s not the hardest part, no
The hardest is knowing there is nothing you can do about it
Parents want to believe our biggest worry is to get a pimple
That I wish was my biggest problem
Some of my best friends who I thought I knew are worrying about pregnancy
Life is a hardship, word to the wise be involved in everything
Worry not about our feelings, but our safety
When you ask us questions pour your heart into it
Show us you really mean your concern
Life to me will have to be taken one step at a time
Life: Where is it going!
