Poem
Time for celebration Time to gather up the best in one location Back where high school dress codes were your main struggle And if your outfit was right then you could score a double As in two phone numbers from girls who may coincidentally know each other So now your stuck in the small town cycle, where you won't trust another Kickback at the Hampton's where the greats are invited And if the boys get comfortable, the flames are ignited No smoker, but what's wrong with a cigar and a shot of rum? No rush for the thrill, I know my time will come By now, you start to realize the brighter side of things Like my necklace, gold watch, and new pinky ring It's an overkill maybe, I just want to show the people what I've become How to bake a dozen cookies out of one crumb Building ways to take care of my parents once they hit their age Leading by example, so my younger siblings can do the same I still have boys who discredit me, the lies they tell are you kidding? I heard she has my link bookmarked So let's not mention who's really winning
