Growing up Too Soon

Hope and wish full prayers
Fly me to the moon
Reality's just what it seems
I'm growing up too soon

I was born beside the dirt road
Under the shiny moon
Born to carry the weight on my shoulder
i'm growing up too soon

Everyone comes ahead of me
Still waiting on my turn
if my life would have been lit in fire
There'd be nothing left to burn
Nothing left to burn

Momma taught me how to beg
I'm her golden spoon
Learn to be wise just to stay alive
I'm growing up too soon

Man lay their hands on me
Others pretend they do not see
Too young to give it up for free
I'm growing up too soon

How long must we sing
Our song in the rain
And how long will it be
Till we rise till we rise again
My boss sets me down to work
I whisper same old tune
Price of despair - a few cents a day
I'm growing up too soon

Biggest crime of our generation
For we are accused,
We can never place our selves
In other peoples shoes

How long must we sing
Our song in the rain
And how long will it be
Till we rise, till we rise again

Hope and wish full prayers
Fly me to the moon
Reality's just what it is
I'm growing up too soon
