Still a Child

I still got stories, stories to tell
I figured it out I swear they're better with rhyme
See no one warned me, I'm still a child just
Better at crying, I just keep it inside
2016, I was socially distancing
You could see I's ahead of time
Had someone look me dead in my eyes
As said she was dying, but I'm still a child

Man I wish I made this up
'Member on that paper route' cash I's saving up
Wasn't lowed' to spend it, didn't have latest stuff
If you didn't make your lunch
You ain't going back inside, so boy you better chase that bus

And I was reading for the intellect, Didn't have no internet
Curfew in effect
Started driving, you're a uber when I send this text
Fool you best be spending less
Cuz if catch you eating without feeding us
It's gon be stress

The bleakest winters, at least December
You better iron your clothes
You can beat with some creased suspenders
No speaking back, you can catch a measly slipper
Or punishment will just sleep for dinner

I still got stories, stories to tell
I figured it out I swear they're better with rhyme
See no one warned me, I'm still a child just
Better at crying, I just keep it inside
2016, I was socially distancing
You could see I's ahead of time
Had someone look me dead in my eyes
As said she was dying, but I'm still a child

You could see I's ahead of time
Had someone look me dead in my eyes
As said she was dying, but I'm still a child

Yo it's tough
'member getting older, really don't remember growing up
I swear don't know enough
Summers were ok but those winters they were cold as
I'd explain, don't know who to trust
It's insane, learned to paint didn't own a brush
I still wrestle my adolescence, I'm throwing hands
I'll be honest, these sonnets are just me glowing up

I'll be honest, these sonnets are just me glowing up

All these fairy tales
Without the happy ending
I guess I'll write these down
For all my descendants
All of my confessions
All of my transgressions
If my kids shuffle these song
They'll all miss the messages

All these fairy tales
Without the happy ending
I guess I'll write these down
For all my descendants
All of my confessions
All of my transgressions
If my kids shuffle these songs
I'll just be torn see

I still got stories, stories to tell
I figured it out I swear they're better with rhyme
See no one warned me, I'm still a child just
Better at crying, I just keep it inside
2016, I was socially distancing
You could see I's ahead of time
Had someone look me dead in my eyes
As said she was dying, but I'm still a child
