When You'Re Just a Teen

When you're just a Teen 

(Verse 1)
Backpacks, notebooks
Hair done 
What a good look(look)
Let's start with my shoe game 
It's on point
Can't explain
Peer pressure 
Don't crumble or break
Never worrying about what people say
Mind set
To learn 
Met this boy
How things turned
Never knew how it felt (felt )
To like somebody else

(Chorus)
When you're just a Teen 
It's cool (it's cool)
Got  to finish
Stay In school(in school)
It's OK to be liked
But focus don't lose sight
No matter how it may seem
These things happen 
When you're just a Teen (teen).

(Verse 2)
Make up 
On deck
Cell phone 
Ready to text
Don't talk to just anyone 
Observe yes 
At all times
Know your worth 
Is not pennies and dimes 
Running out of time on this verse
Didn't have a chance to rehearse 

Chorus)
When you're just a Teen 
It's cool (it's cool)
Got  to finish
Stay In school(in school)
It's OK to be liked
But focus don't lose sight
No matter how it may seem
These things happen 
When you're just a Teen (teen

Rock left to right
Right to left 
Do your dance 
By yourself 
Rock left to right 
Right to left 
Do your dance by yourself 

Chorus)
When you're just a Teen 
It's cool (it's cool)
Got  to finish
Stay In school(in school)
It's OK to be liked
But focus don't lose sight
No matter how it may seem
These things happen 
When you're just a Teen (teen)

Repeat until chorus fades
