Thorns on dead roses
That's what you explain me to be
The girl dat can never be broken by a boy
You praise me to be
But what am I really?
I wonder every day I sleep
Am I just a girl that don't think of boys as more than friends

Get in the gang and act like one of the boys
They all say:
On her birth She was crown as a king

She don't sit on the throne
She got a queendom to run
She got the unusual side of a girl
But she is powerful just as a lion stare

She can flip stones and bring down your ship
Like a control freak
She is a strong woman but not a woman with a heart to judge

That's how it all started
Still I started realizing am still a girl just rolling with the boys
They treat me like themselves
Because I don't act pretty or smart around them
And each time I want to be noticed
I never come through 
Love is not something am used to
No makeup just a plain face on
That's never going to impress them
Until you have a skirt on
Friends don't date friends in d gang
Its against the rule
I just want to be turn apart and be rearranged back
Like once before
As a teenage girl who just learnt how to love.
