The Evolution of Me

I Was Once...

I was once what everyone expected
I was once happy and full of life
I once didn't have a care in the world
I once only cared about books and cartoons

But as I grew older everything changed
My happiness was replaced with sorrow
And I became bombard with worries
Now I worry how and if I'll make it to the next day

I was once a child oblivious to the world
But as I grew older and became a young woman I realized all the bullshit in the world
And this shit aint all its cracked up to be

I was once depressed and said fuck this shit
Wanted to take my own life so many times but took a step back and thought
I won't let myself down even if everyone else did
So I stuck it out and can truly say I feel better

I was once a little girl free of cares
But I grew older and became filled with worry
College, prom, school, work, future, relationships
That's all that everyone's talking about

I was once so many things
But now I'm so much more
I've evolved into something greater than I could've imagined and yet still I will become so much more
