Watch Us Shine
Location
There is change
There is inspiration
There is hope left in these young bones.
I am a kid
Grown up too fast in social expectations.
I am a kid
Watching others do the same.
I can thrive
We can thrive
Just gotta find the drive
You ask me what I would change
Let me tell you what
I would wring the throat of social pressure
Watch wither and fry
Put the young girl in her place
Tell her she got wings on which to fly
Strike the boy across the brain
Show him there is no need to hide his cries
I can thrive
We can thrive
Just gotta find the drive
If it only took a switch
I’d turn it up all night
Watch these little boys and girls
Discover and spread their shine
