Mad
At this point I couldn't say I'm happy
And I ain't afraid to admit it
So many times I should have spoke up
But I just sat there in silence
As a kid you try and grow up
But they just tell you to quit it
But now that I'm older they expect more from me
Like I should somehow already know the recipe
And know which path I'm going to take
All this time I thought I was supposed to be happy
I thought things were supposed to be fun
But now, in an instant, the funs over
School didn't prepare me for this
Nobody really told me this was coming
How was I supposed to know
I was just a kid
But then again maybe I should have known
Since I'm an adult
I changed stages in my life
A single season didn't even pass
Its still spring
I still want to enjoy myself
But apparently that won't get me anywhere
