[Verse]
You tell me to stand tall but clip my wings
Say I’m grown enough for serious things
But too young to know what freedom brings
[Prechorus]
I’m stuck in between
A puppet and a queen
[Chorus]
You want me to act like I’ve got it all down
But treat me like a kid when no one's around
I’m not your doll
I’m not your saint
These are my growing pains
[Verse 2]
You preach responsibility
Then lock the door
Say "trust yourself" but watch me like a chore
I’m not the child you knew before
[Prechorus]
I’m caught in the grey
No black or white today
[Chorus]
You want me to act like I’ve got it all down
But treat me like a kid when no one's around
I’m not your doll
I’m not your saint
These are my growing pains
