Live and Let Live

by Beeny   Sep 19, 2006


For so long I've tried to be something I'm not,
longing to be all grown up

Wanting life to begin,
to be in control,
to be more than a minor, a statistic

Hating being patronized for being a teen,
not granted with knowledge,
expected to have low self-esteem

Making and breaking friendships because they didn't seem enough,
messing my mind up because i was just all full of stuff

But, now i think I'll just live and let live,
there's no point judging the immaturity of my peers,
there's no point being above them any longer,
I feel freedom now at the thought of being a teenager,
a stroppy, sleepy, stupid teenager,
I feel freedom now at living,
living and let live.
