When I wake up, there are raindrops against the window pane.
And everywhere I go, there are always expectations pushed onto me.
Be this, be that, wear this not that.
And everyday, I am stressed.
I wish that I could switch my life around
But I am stuck in this rut and I need a ladder of hope to get out of this ditch.
I'm only a kid with dreams to change but no one believes in me.
How do I get them to?
How do I get my classmates to not bully me because I don't have a father?
How do I get my sister to help around the house?
How do I get my grades up for promotion?
I'm only a kid with dreams to change my life and to help my mother.

I'm only a kid with dreams to change my life and to help my mother.
I can't really rhyme but I can give you stories about my life so a ballad?
