I remember the day
i had moved out in my new apartment
young yet already caught in the cycle
of sleep-work-eat rinse and repeat
i realized this was not a life
now that i was no longer living
under my parents' roof
it was up to me to create
the type of life i wanted to live
however i could imagine
i accepted the challenge
though it would not be easy
to grow up and become my own person
