"Teenagers: Misunderstood"
Ever since I’ve become a teenager
I’ve felt that I have had a lot on my plate to wager
Between friends, grades, what-ifs and might’s
Do teenagers today really have any rights?
Like are they really allowed to have any fun?
Or do they have to make sure all of their homework is typed up and done?
And you haven’t heard the worst part yet
Until you see what time their alarm clock is set?
And if you think that alone is lethal to their mental state
Every single one of them is based on a trait
Whether it’s weight, height, bust, or size
They all feel compelled to be after one single prize.
To be accepted amongst each other
No matter what anyone says, be it their father or their mother
I can understand their proclamation
Because I, myself, am a part of the teenage generation.
