Typical Teen

You don't know where you're going in life and you're not sure you want to go very far at all.
You do stupid things. Steal, drink, smoke, take drugs, hurt yourself.

Then life gives you the opportunity to fix everything.
It gives you an opportunity to do it for someone else, because you'd never want to do it for yourself.
But people tell you it's wrong.
That you can't do it, you can't fix your life.
You can't believe them though.
Not when you've seen it fix someone elses life.

You know they're just trying to help.
You know they mean well.
But you need to do this for yourself.
Although you don't want to bring someone else down with you.

Especially not your own baby...
