Grown?
Expectations scream in my ear That I need to grow up, that I need to have no fear That I should somehow show them all And communicate with a ball I want to scream but my voice is rough I’m only young, I’m only just starting to be tough I want to grow, but not too soon I need more time to experience the moon The feeling of knowing my body isn't fully grown Makes it hard to stand tall on my own It's such a weird trend to be grown And I'm not sure why everyone is so thrown But I'm a warrior at heart, never faltering My spirit is strong and my thoughts never cloistering They said I'm young, but I've been through a lot And I'm growing stronger with each passing shot.
