What It Means
Lifeless decisions
Lifetime memories
Follow you through
From a baby to an adult
It means so much
We take it for granted
Things seem to be going straight
Then they go slanted
Takes more than strength and power
Time and hours
Realistic vs. Optimistic
Truth and lies
The bills and rent
Make you want to run away
Not want to be an adult anymore
I give up
Give me those kid days back
That's a fact
I loved when I had no worries
No care in the world
Now, I have 4
Make me crazy some more
I have to prepare
For the life ahead
The attitude
The tantrums
The disrespect
The menstrual
The mental
Show me how
Being and adult
Is taking it one day at a time
When your young
You don't listen
Or understand
That life will become a lot harder
Because life is a
DEMAND!!
