[Intro] La, la, la, la Fa, la, la, la Fa, la, fa, la [Verse 1] It all started like this Ninth grade, freshman year So happy to be in high school I shedded a tear So many cute dudes to choose from I knew it was one That was right for me Well, I thought at least He was the big guy on campus On the football team Basketball, homecoming He was voted for King There was me I was on the cheerleading squad Sweet sixteen Looking for love in my heart It was a beautiful thing from the start I must say only problem My parents were strict They aint play No phone calls after eight oclock No stayin out late Im like Damn, gimme a break! Hormones kicking in Start displaying my shape More concerned with my looks Than my books and grades Headed nowhere fast I was on my way Curiosity Cmon, I know yall relate [Chorus] Think about the characters in my storybook The pages I have read you This aint your mommas fairytale The things that I have been through In all my life, and all my days I never thought I would end up this way [Verse 2] Its been a year now Im a sophomore Maturing no more Still Im young and dumb And plus Im unsure who I am What the future has in store Man, Im tryin to be grown Cause my parents now divorced I took a charge to roll with Dough Boy Moms tried to force me to move to New York But of course that plan it fell short She found herself caught up in court on child support Drama, problems of all sorts Stressing, started smokin Newports Carefree about the ones who care for me Lost teen, giving up on my dreams And as worst as that seems Had me thinkin crazy things like suicide Like itd better everything if I just die Full blown, without guidance or a home Im startin to get stomach pains Thats strange What could be wrong? [Chorus] Think about the characters in my storybook The pages I have read you This aint your mommas fairytale The things that I have been through In all my life, and all my days I never thought I would end up this way [Verse 3] What do I do, I ask myself, everyday A child giving birth to a child What can I say? This wasnt posed to happen to me, no way Here I am, turned my back on my fam Well, God damn Wasnt even part of the plan Im spazzing out I lay down at night The hurt just burst out I shout How could he leave at my time of need? Specially now Im pregnant and due in three? Maybe I should have it and give it up for adoption I cant graduate I aint been to school since August Often I hear this voice talking in the back of my mind So many problems in my life I just pray for my time to come God take me Leave my child behind Im on the run Adrenaline pumpin so angry I could kill someone Dont make me prove it Cause if you dont do it Then Ima do it Im foolish and so stupid! [Chorus] Think about the characters in my storybook The pages I have read you This aint your mommas fairytale The things that I have been through In all my life, and all my days I never thought I would end up this way Think about the characters in my storybook The pages I have read you This aint your mommas fairytale The things that I have been through In all my life, and all my days I never thought I would end up this way
