Lyrics
This song's not about a girl, it's just about me
I'm trying to comprehend, attempting to make God see
I'm seventeen and I'm all alone,
I'm scared to death to leave my home,
Does anyone out there really understand?
I need my mother and I need my friends,
Will I remember all my father said?
I'm just a boy and I’m not ready to be a man,
I need you God and I need you now,
I'll do my best to make you proud,
But I'm not ready to go out there on my own,
I wanna be myself, I wanna be a boy,
I wanna live the life I have enjoyed,
I'm kid and I'm not ready to leave home.
I'll miss the football games and the high school proms,
The nights I spent crying in my mother's arms,
That part of life is over for me,
I'll miss the girls that made me understand
And the friends that made me who I am
I've never been so afraid of being free.
I need you God and I need you now,
I'll do my best to make you proud,
But I'm not ready to go out there on my own,
I wanna be myself, I wanna be a boy,
I wanna live the life I have enjoyed,
I'm just a kid and I'm not ready to leave home
