You say I’m too young

You say I am too young to be overwhelmed to be depressed

Too young to have breakdowns because I’m highly stressed

You say I am too young to know my politics to know my rights

Too young to want to fight my own fights

You say I am too young to have opinions, to have a voice

Too young to even have a choice

You say I am too young to be worried about death or rape

Too young to want to change the world even without a cape

You say I am too young to want to save the environment

Too young to spot pride from entitlement

You say I am too young to have been in love

Too young to not believe that there is something up above

You say I am too young, too naïve, too dramatic, too uptight

Too sensitive, too foolish
