Tough To Be A Teen
 
Unknown
 
  
It's tough to be a teen, no one really knows 
what pressure is like in school; this is how it goes. 
I wake up every morning, and stare into this face 
I want to be good looking, but feel like a disgrace 
my friends they seem to like me, if I follow through with their dare, 
but if I try to be myself, they never seem to care. 
 
My mom, well she keeps saying, I gotta make the grade 
while both my parents love me, it slowly seems to fade. 
It seems like everyone I know is trying to be so cool 
and every time I try, I end up just a fool 
 
I've thought about taking drugs, I really don't want to know 
but I just don't fit in, and its really starting to show 
maybe if I could make the team, I'll stand out in the crowd 
if they could see how hard I try, I know they would be proud 
 
You see, I'm still a virgin in many ways, but my friends they can't find out 
'cuz if they really knew the truth, they'd laugh and shout. 
Sometimes I get so low; I want to cash it in 
my probs really aren't that bad, if I think of how life's been. 
 
Sometimes I'm really lost, and wonder what to do 
I wonder where to go, who I can talk to 
 
Its tough to be a teen, sometimes its not fair 
I wish I had somewhere to go, and someone to CARE
