I am from everyone stay over grannies

The person with the biggest cover shares with someone

Take turns on the game before no one plays

Broken heads and arms off wrestling men

 

I am from you better eat or you will be hungry

Close your mouth and quit smoking

Slow down that plate ain’t going nowhere

You will be right there until that broccoli

 

I am from fighting with my brothers over a video game

The pounding on my head as if it’s a heartbeat from being slammed

Threaten to not tell an adult

Being told I’m a snitch if I tell

 

I am from being forced to play football

If your cousins is dancing in the endzone on a touchdown you really can’t complain

But them days ducking your head then running into a 100 pound linebacker at age of 11

If you didn’t u run a 2 laps around a 100 yard field

 

I am from being told no because I’m a child

Always having to take a nap because I’m so called a little boy

When u get 18 u can do whatever you want

I am from wanting more freedom like adults
