Trouble

Easy to get in, hard to get out

That's what my life consists of

That's what I'm all about.

One thing a teen always gets into:

Trouble

I swear it's my real middle name

If anything happens,

I'm always the one to blame.

Whether I did it or not...

Trouble, I'm always in that spot.

 

Forget to do one of my chores,

Trouble

You feel as if I'm talking with an attitude,

Trouble

Mad because you forgot where I told you I was going,

TROUBLE!

Trouble, trouble, trouble

Easy to get in it, hard to get out

That's what my life consists of

That's what I'm all about.

 

What makes it even worse

Is when the "trouble" I'm in causes you to curse

Showing disrespect and calling me names

Saying things so hurtful

And trying to put me into shame.

I don't feel ashamed, it just brings up the lion on the inside

But I keep it in; I let the lion hide.

If I ever let the lion out,

You'd see a whole other side to me

But I'll keep that to myself,

For you'd see what a monster I could be.

 

Easy to get in, hard to get out

That's what my life consists of

That's what I'm all about.

 

Trouble, trouble, trouble,

I can never get out

Trouble, trouble, trouble

You never want to hear me out.

Easy to get in, hard to get out

That's what my life consists of

That's what I'm all about
