Don't Worry

Don’t Worry

It’s 10 o’clock on the dot
And you sure did drink a lot
Not to mention you puked a lot
But damn haven’t you already slept it all off
Me, I’ve been up a day
Now make that two
But hey who knew
You were going to drink until you were blue
And have to run into the bathroom to spew
But it’s all cool because I’ve had time
To think about what’s been going on at home
And school
And with my friends
And even the fact that my presidency is coming to an end
My parents’ fear that I’ve gave up on all my goals and dreams
Of becoming an Area officer
And making it to college
And walking across the stage with all the honors on my collar
I might have changed my personality and appearance
But I still strive to meet those goals and dreams
I set for myself when I was 13

Don’t worry Mom and Dad
Please don’t give up on me
Can’t you see
I’m trying to reach the goals you set for me
But sometimes you’re going to have to let me be
I need to live life and experience things
That will shape me into the adult I’ll grow up to be
You can’t be by my side each and everyday
You’re going to have to let go
And let me live life my own way
