growing old (Glow up)

I’m getting old now I think 10 o’clock is a time to be countin sheep

I lay in my bed and I weep because this wasn’t supposed to happen to me 

My feet hurt ,my back ache oh this old person life is a head ache 

Miss the days at the park runnin and playin now you can’t me to walk no where 

Use to dress up in my moms wigs thought they were weird 

Now I’m the wig lady, with a new wig everyday 

Used to think boys had cooties ,now I’m all smoochie smoochie 

But aye mindsets have changed 

I no longer fear judgement, I feel now that people should love me

Why? Because I’m me the greatest 

Ain’t no glow up bout looks 

It’s about mindset and when you change your way of thinking 

Then  you’ll see that you are the greatest 

Life is what you make it so go out here and make it great !!
