Karina Pasian - 16 At War lyrics

Ain't no daddy's where I'm from It's just mad mothers And eyes that still seem They can't look past color Why am I disrespected by Someone I should call brother? And why girls feel unpretty And constantly hate each other? Bad air in my lungs Man I can't breathe My eyes burnin' from all the dirt and the debris And it's third degree Emotionless on the scene It's like a disease The way y'all k**in' me [Hook] I'm 16 and I shouldn't have to feel like this I'm 16, every young boy out here wanna kiss I'm 16, and me and my mama goin' through it 16 on the block 16 on the block 16, At war [6x] 16 on the block 16 on the block Around here cool is another word for fool If he smoke then she smoke I gotta smoke too Now what would I do if I didn't have a clue? I'm 16 Y.O Asking God oh Why, OH If my clothes ain't tight Then he ain't gone like me Eyes on the prize So the next girl dress just like me I'm so full of promise But why promise if I'm gonna just be rewarded By bad actions To him I'm just a transaction [Hook] I want you to love my mind My smile, my style I want you to know the best of me I want to belong without being treated Like property Why does this seem like a fantasy? [Hook]
