act your age, not your shoe size

Location

maturity of growth

diminish by stupidity

where juvenile deliquency influence people to act much younger than their age

going through identity crisis

finding oneself

trying to figure out whether to fit in or stand out

that's expected of a teen

sadden of lessons never learn once one becomes an adult

all grown up trying to relive moments through 2nd childhood

imagine

a guy at 35 wearing a du-rag still on the block

a chick at 45 who is a grandmother going to club dancing with guys who as young as her daughter's boyfriend

how does that sound

it's getting ridiculous

grow up

stop chasing each other like little kids

stop throwing monstrous tantrums like a 5 yr old when you don't have you way

seriously

grow the fuck up
