I'm not a little girl anymore, but I can still make a mistake
I can still play dress up, and I can still act fake
Time seemed to fly by, just a week ago I was nine
Playing with my Barbies, and never worrying over guys
Though it still seems like four days ago, I was turning ten.
Dancing around the kitchen and sleepovers in the den.
But still it feels like two days ago I was finally turning thirteen
I had so many more privileges, I felt like I was a queen.
Fourteen and Fifteen flew by in just one single day,
I didn't feel like a child anymore, and had forgotten how to play.
Sweet sixteen, here I am...feeling lost and confused
Too young to do so many things, yet too old to be excused.
Caught in the middle, stuck somewhere in between.
Living the day to day life of any ordinary teen.
Wondering if I'll ever make it...God, it seems so tough
I never expected growing up could ever be so rough.
Life just keeps on flying by, and I can't seem to stay strong
As a little girl I thought it'd be easy, but oh boy, was I wrong!
