It seems like just yesterday that I was ten Still new to the world and what it holds Some people will hold you back Some will push you to hard You either grow up too fast or too slow There is no in between And I have so many questions Most that I will never know the answer to. It seems like just yesterday that I was five Playing in the backyard Getting into my siblings things Lying to get out of trouble It was just princess and pirates Mickey and Minnie Mouse You just have to stay out the big guys way and you will be just fine I didn’t have to deal with the weight of the world Fights were for fun fought with water guns. Now everyone is watching your every move Talking, yelling, lying about you What has the world come to Killing time, more like killing each other That’s why I act like a child sometimes To remember the time where everything was a-okay I like to play pretend to forget this world and make a new one in my mind. It seems like just yesterday But time doesn’t wait for anyone.
