Attempt to pressure me
“When will you have a child?”
This question
Always never makes me smile
I want one..
Don't get me wrong
There's more for me in life
I'm finding where I belong

That rejected look
I'm not defective
Taking my time
Have fun playing detective

I've made the mistake
Turned my living room into judge Judy
I've learned, I withdraw
Far from perfect, who am I to decide?
There's so much I never hear,
Wish I never saw
I don't listen to what people say
I watch what people do
It's true.. actions yell
Like thunder from the clouds
When I do something right,
I can hear my relative angels proud

Raised with truth that I could make adifference
Here I am trying to live in my grandpasshoes
But going to college, get the degree,work for a CEO
Wrong size for me, don't care how manybattles I lose
It's how you do better, raise yourselfup
Practice makes perfect
Untying knots, finding pollutions
Traveling life, it's so abrupt.

There's no shield for life
No knight in shining armor
Rather be the solution
Skip by Walmart,
Pay the farmer

When I tuck myself in
I sleep well, I dream
Happiness comes from within
If what I do is so evil,
Just know I'm content with living insin.
