I am a mature and understanding teenager who loves to laugh.
I wonder how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop.
I hear my future calling me.
I see my life ahead as a happy one.
I want to feel fulfilled and grateful as an adult.
I am a mature and understanding teenager who loves to laugh.

I pretend to be like everyone else.
I feel the diploma in my hand as I graduate
I touch the ceiling and keep climbing anyway.
I worry about my siblings and how they will mature
I cry when I think about the past
I am a mature and understanding teenager who loves to laugh.

I understand God is with me always
I say that you have to want something to achieve it.
I dream about life outside of Jonesboro.
I try not to sin too much because it is wrong.
I hope to reach others and heal them.
I am a mature and understanding teenager who loves to laugh.
