Little Ol' Me

I guess there’s a lot to say

Or a lot I could say anyway

But I’m just not sure where to start

What should I say about myself?

Every person has a lot they could say

Each one of us has things that make us,

Well, there are little pieces of a puzzle

And the puzzle is the whole us

That might sound funny

But that’s one way of putting it

Now I just have to figure out,

How I want to put it for me

I’m young

And very much still figuring things out

Figuring out me seems to be the first thing on my plate

I used to think I knew myself pretty well

At one point I did know myself

I had this grand plan

I had all these ideas about stuff

And I thought everything would be just that

Life doesn’t fit in a box though

And my life certainly didn’t fit in my box

So here I am still sussing it out

Just like everyone else

Because life changes

I changed

And that’s probably why

I had to figure me out all over again

I think I’m sweet and nice

I know I’m sensitive

But I try to be tough

It’s the emotional pileups that really get me

When enough stuff piles up in my life

Well, I tend to kinda breakdown

Or just have it out in a good cry

It’s not the best, but I do it

I love my family

Even though they get on my nerves

But I guess that’s just part of being family

Because everyone has family drama, right?

And the more time I spend with them

The more I find we have in common

And the more I understand myself

I’ve learned so much about myself from them

Sometimes I love them

And sometimes I feel like I don’t

And then there times that they hurt me

Or I hurt them

But in the end

We’re family

And that’s what matters

I’ll always be there for them

And I really cherish my friends

They’re there for me

And I’m there for them

They get to see the best and the worst of me

The ones that have been around see it all

I’m just glad I have so many memories

Because the memories are what we get to keep

When all is said and done

Some things come and go

Some friends are ones I have to remember

And some will always be in my life

Right now I don’t know what some of them will be

All I know is that I’m me

And I’m still figuring things out

But I’m glad I have my family and my friends

They’re just part of the whole ‘Little Ol’ Me’ package
