[Verse 1]
Seventeen
Grew up too fast
Cartoons turned into court dates
My home never felt like home
Just slammed doors and shut gates
Daddy in a cell
No calls
Mama chasing smoke
Thin frame
I was changing diapers at sixteen
While my friends just wrote their names
[Chorus]
Now I'm trying to figure it all out
Praying for a reason
Staring at the sky
Feels like I'm standing in a locked room
Pushing every wall
Still asking why
Why it had to be my life this way
Why the good days always pass me by
Got a heart full of tired
A head full of noise
I'm going insane just wondering why
[Verse 2]
Never got the chance to be a kid
I was fixing plates
Not making plans
Hiding every tear I ever hid
Wiping fingerprints off my hands
All these nights scrolling through my thoughts
Dark roads
Long roads
Red eyes
Everyone saying I’m so strong
But they never hear the quiet cries
[Chorus]
Now I'm trying to figure it all out
Praying for a reason
Staring at the sky
Feels like I'm standing in a locked room
Pushing every wall
Still asking why
Why it had to be my life this way
Why the good days always pass me by
Got a heart full of tired
A head full of noise
I'm going insane just wondering why
