Young & Bound



Living in a world where I am not

like everyone else. I thought something

was wrong with me, but I seen that

I was just a different kind of young.

Bound, and ready for another round

with my insecurity. I see my friends

around me, they all seem the same,

and sometimes I feel lame, though

who can I blame. I can't embrace

my inner flame. Feeling like I am

on a plane, and I am trying to land

on the destination that is right for me.

I wish I could be like my friends all

out and independent. I love how they

represent who they are, showing me

how far I can go. Gotta get ready for

my debut show, moving snow just

trying to make my own show.

 

I see all my friends taking selfies,

I see my family posing for the family photo,

and I am in the back just trying to

break free. A long time ago I said

I could be like that forever, but soon I was looking

to unleash my inner flame, my inner

fame. Getting into my own lane, I don't

have to be like everyone else to find

the right time for me to shine.

Seeing I could be reckless, and not

do any practice, but I knew better.

So I took the time to write the letter

to myself, to be better than I was before

not rushing to grow up when I wasn't ready.



I look and I see my next scene.

Someone I like, and they might

be the one, and this time, I will

move the sun to see the daylight

on my skin. I had to look back and

see why was I rushing, to find another

one in my lane? Young and bound ready

for another round. I though my sound

was on mute, I could not compute

my life or motivation, but soon

I see I was just trying to find love

because of all the other people around me.

Friends, family, I thought I was going

to be alone, but I just gotta wait

to awake my inner phoenix. Find the

tame to my flame, and then I think I 'll be fine

for the rest of time.



I see all my friends taking selfies,

I see my family posing for the family photo,

and I am in the back just trying to

break free. A long time ago I said

I could be like that forever, but soon I was looking

to unleash my inner flame, my inner

fame. Getting into my own lane, I don't

have to be like everyone else to find

the right time for me to shine.

Seeing I could be reckless, and not

do any practice, but I knew better.

So I took the time to write the letter

to myself, to be better than I was before

not rushing to grow up when I wasn't ready.



It's like a few years latter, I got better

at being me. I got better at seeing I did

not have to rush to be great. I did not

have to be hard and reckless to make

people breathless. After some mistakes and

now looking back, I see was a hot mess.

If I was texting this to someone I would

right lol right about now. So my moral is

if you're a late bloomer and you see everyone

around you being in love, making movements,

doing super incredible things. Don't be discouraged,

I can name a bunch of my friends and family

who have made prints before me, but I realized that I just

had to wait, and my right time to shine came.

Be Young & Bound to take chances. It'll be worth it.

Close

Wanna be in love, just wait, wanna have fame,

just wait for the right time. Don't grow up to

quick because you will miss out on the nice things.

The real memories, that will bring you that happy

thing you will feel years from now. You will make

mistakes, and you will look back and say why?

But like I said it will be worth it. Be Young & Bound.
