What goes up must come down
I learn new words to say out loud
Don't hold your hand when we cross the street in town
I can tie my shoes and put on my clothes
And stay up late when no one knows
I wanna take risks and see how far it goes
I feel guilt for things that don't make sense
When I fail to reach accomplishments
I'm desperate for independence
But there's a lot to learn
I wanna do things on my own
And I don't need your help
I wanna make my own mistakes
So I can learn them for myself
I wanna know right from wrong
And don't want things to take too long
Even if my plans might come on a bit too strong
I just like to try new things
And engage in all activities
My creative side is just developing
I might not always act alright
I something scream and kick and fight
Aggression that I just can't deny
But don't be concerned
I wanna do things on my own
And I don't need your help
I wanna make my own mistakes
So I can learn them for myself
I wanna do things on my own
And I don't need your help
I wanna make my own mistakes
So I can learn them for myself
