I feel the leash
Getting tighter around me
As the years move forward
But I want my wings
Are you scared that?
I'm going to leave
I'm not like you
I didn't drop out
Why can't you let go?
I can take care of myself
I'm gone once I'm done
The freedom I have is to little
Just let me go
Why keep treating me like a child
I'm not 2 or 5 or 10 years old
I'm 17 years old I'll be 18 next year
Take the leash off me
Let me spread my wings
Let me grow without your help
The time has come to let go.
