<p>The older you get the wiser you become</p>
<p>Someone once told me</p>
<p>Being 16 sure aint easy especially when people talk greasy</p>
<p>You have to find time to maintain your mind</p>
<p>Focus on the bigger pictures and leave the hatters behind</p>
<p>When i walk i walk 9 feet high</p>
<p>Moving forward is the best thing you can do</p>

<p>I guess emotions got the best of me</p>
<p>Caught up in his mind i didn&#8217;t have time to realize he was hurting me</p>
<p>As time went on i came to my sences</p>
<p>See the arguing was not that bad </p>
<p>And crying didn&#8217;t make me that sad</p>
<p>It was the fact i let someone take control of me other than me</p>
<p>Begging and pleading that he would change</p>
<p>Saying over and over again</p>
<p>The three little words that i wanted to hear</p>
<p>But realize it didn&#8217;t mean not a thing</p>
<p>So i packed my things</p>
<p>And i never look bak since the day i left</p>

<p>                I&#8217;ve seen so much here. Traveling all around the world, nothing beats this city. As here the the girls click Klak on the streets. I can only think of us. Only thing is missing is those retro beats, long coats, wind blowing and snow falling. Ooh how i miss the streets. The Eiffel tower and all the great landmarks, just like America. Dollars to Euros spending money in the clothing stores i can only  think of us and how we use to stay out all night long. As time go by i hope u visit. I know you would love it like me. </p>
