Teen Life

Being a teenager is hard.
You go to school 
listen to people talk about you
They worry about your shoes.
They worry about if you “on fleek”
but they don’t know that you really
wanna play hide and seek.

People don’t understand the things that
teenagers go through. 
Teenagers have a lot of peer pressure 
and people are rude.
Teens have to deal with people who
think they’re better than everybody, even you.

Life of a teen nobody understands
Teens wish they had someone to
understand and someone to grab their hand.
Teens wish they could laugh and play 
but now they have to Oh! watch their babies all day.

The world that we live is cruel
and filled with so many fools.
Teens, make sure they have good grades,
afraid about what their parents will say.
There’s a lot of violence and crime progressing
but there’s nobody doing any time.

In this world all you hear about are the gangs
and the guns that go bang!
Life of a teen you wouldn't understand
there’s nobody to grab our hand

Life of a Girl

Us girls, we worry about our hair.
and what we wear. 
Girls worry about their weave 
and believe that they can achieve.
Us girls want loyalty
and boys who treat us like royalty.
Girls want to be your honey
not spend all your money.
Us girls, are classy
but sometimes Sassy.
Girls like to stay away from the drama;
so when she get a job, she see commas.
Us girls, like to go shopping
and get ice cream with alot of topping.
Girls, they like to have fun
but we don’t like sweating in the sun. 
Us girl, like talking 
and we do a lot of walking.
Girls make sure they eyebrows on fleek
so they won’t be on hide and seek.
Us girls, worry about getting our nails done
and making sure we got a perfect bun. 
Girls likes to go and run
and have fun with their loved ones.
Us girls, worry about out shoes
and we like to refuse and confuse. 
Girls, like to go to the teach,
but don’t like giving speech.

Boys,

Boys

Boys, all they want to do is hoop 
and  watch that ball go swoop.
All they care about is J’s 
when they need to worry about their grades.
Boys, all they like to do is go to parties 
					and talk to girls like their barbies.
All they care about is counting money 
and worrying about the honeys.
Boys, all they do is lie
and then wanna hide.
all they care about is looking fresh
but they hairline a mess.
Boys, all they do is twist their hair 
and worry about what they wear.
all they do is go to school
and act a total fool.
Boys, get a car so they can find 
a girl who look like a superstar.
All they do is try to act cool
so they can be like their dudes.
Boys, all they do try to be in so called gang
so they can show their friends that they can hang. 
All they do is play 2k15
but not going to be able to drive when they 16.

Everything About You Is Beautiful

Everything about you is beautiful especially your scars,
Your scars mean that you have been in a situation.
that you thought you couldn't handle but some way or another, 
you managed to get through it ALIVE.
Every scar on you body has its own individual story that should be told.
You shouldn't try to cover up your scars,
they mean that you have survived your storm. 
No matter the reason why the scar is on your body its beautiful just like you.

Do You Know What Its Like

Do you know what it’s like to grow up too fast,
To have all these feelings because of your past?
I was so innocent, was so young then all of a sudden
I feel that my childhood is done.
I thought I could trust him but guess I thought wrong
Ever since that day my innocence was gone.
I was too young and we use to have fun.
Ever since that day I don't want to be bothered with anyone.
I said I was going to try and keep my innocence till I finished college
Because I wanted to have all my knowledge. 
On this day I was speechless and ludicrous.
I feel that this is all my fault.
I know that this was all my fault.
I feel remorse that this happened.
I feel dumb for not telling anyone that it happened,
They wouldn't understand my pain and how I feel.
Till this day I have all this guilt.
I wish you could see all the hurt and pain I’m holding on to.
I’ve always wanted to hide because of you. 
I’m emotionally drained and going insane. 
AIn’t nothing in my life the same.
Numbing the pain is the only way i feel better,

You'Re Finally Free

When I first heard you were gone all I could think was why,
Why you have to die.
You told me that one day you’re going to go,
When you told me that I told you that it’s going to be hard though.
You told me not to cry and to wipe my eyes.
You told me that everything is going to be alright,
and you gaining your angel wings and going into the sky.
You told me everything I needed to hear,
You was all ears for me in other words you were there for me.
When I cried you were the one who dried my eyes,
you told me everything is going to be ok and gave me good advice.
I knew you would gain your angel wings but I still can't believe
this one thing.
I wish this was all a dream because all I do is scream.
Life is not the same without you here,
I just wish you were by my side or near.
I had a feeling that I would start feeling this way.
People tell me you’re gone but in my mind you’re not,
Ever since you left it feel like my whole life stopped.
