I know you don't understand
I know that you tried
But I cant live in a world where I am expected to work until I die

I don't want to argue
And this isn't a debate
I will start my life, and no time will ever be too late

I don't want to be in history books
I don't want a mansion
I don't care about the newest trends
Or having the best sense of fashion

I want to be loved
And I want to explore
I don't see how that's a crime
I don't see how you cant take anymore

I'm not even old enough to legally enjoy a beer in my own country
But I am supposed to work a job I hate and somehow still feel free?
It's hard to explain the reality that I see through my own eyes
The world is beautiful and full of hello's and goodbye's
What is the rush?
Why must I move so fast?
You say you wont be here forever
But, you know, nothing lasts
So take your time
Take a deep breath and trust in me..
**You don't have to die to be set free.
