Why can't I fail? End up in Paris or jail Why must I live in a classroom with a degree to which I only use a broom? Why is it so hard to believe that someone would wish to travel and see what they could achieve? I wish to grow and explore because somehow I always fathomed there was more. So I'm sorry, Momma, if it's not what you wanted but if I don't do this I'll always be haunted. I want to grow out my mane and live my life free from his chain With shot of whiskey here or there and a complexion I keep complet-el-y bare. I can't wait to see what I'll see and discover just who I will be.
