success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which one has overcome while trying to succeed


Life is always easier you're young



When we lived carefree and you thought everything was YOURS



back when heartbreaks didn't exist && Girls and Boys had "cooties"



when we would sneak Downstairs on Dec, 24th



just to take peek at whats under the Christmas Tree



But now we have to grow up, as a child we had no worries



Now as teens we have lots, We try to contemplate the meaning of love



Along the way we discover the meaning of broken hearts



and how hearing "Can we just be friends" can tear your world apart .



Aside from Love , Heartbreaks and Heartaches



Parents want us to start taking responsibility for our actions



Straight A's are expected and we say Bye-Bye to nap time



Its time to GROW UP they say, && we still wanna have fun



Giving into peer pressure , making the decisions we know were wrong



But going along with it cause we want to see the outcome



Parents lecture && scold us && as we get older we start learning from our mistakes



But without the mistakes what would we have to reflect on?



We crave to be independent and wanna do things alone



But sometimes you miss living at home, and think of going back



We have already stepped out into the Real world, so don't turn back



Cause its time to GROW UP...
