Only Time Will Tell

Am I ready to start a new chapter 
Find new friends, hear new laughters
Grow through knowledge, Go to college
I feel like I'm stuck in bondage
Wondering is it to much for me
Am I ready to be... what you call an A-D-U-L-T 
As you can see, I have one more year
Then I'll be grown and out of here
I can not say that I am scared 
Just wondering am I fully prepared
For what life may throw or I may topple
Can I get a wish from a genie in a bottle
What it would be no one will know 
I'll have to measure the cons and the pros
Along the way I'll set a few goals
First time I will be affecting the polls
Helping chose the next presidential canidate
The Bible says every leader is heaven sent
Time doesn't ask for my consent 
So I hope my time here was a time well spent
