Sometimes I like to RUN & HIDE..



I know that I'm grown;
pretty eyes,
thick thighs,
nice behind,
But sometimes,
I like to run and hide
Away from those things
that scare me
or that are exciting
Oh my gosh,
I feel so weird inside
Maybe I need to scream out loud
So I can finally release what
all this is all about
Yes,
scream out loud and shout
to get rid of all this self doubt

I know that I'm grown;
pretty eyes,
thick thighs,
nice behind,
but sometimes,
I like to run and hide
From a lover
I like to duck and cover
so, I won't mess anything up
or have an eruption
or that fearfully miss communication utter

I know that I'm grown;
pretty eyes,
thick thighs,
nice behind,
but sometimes,
I like to run and hide
from the challenge
that I have to face day to day
but is the time right
maybe I will like...
or NOT
We will see,
Alright

I know that I'm grown;
pretty eyes,
thick thighs,
nice behind,
but sometimes,
I like to run and hide
from things that are new
Cause I don't have a clue
of what to do or how to move
Or how to feel
because I'm scared that it is real

I know that I'm grown;
pretty eyes,
thick thighs,
nice behind,
but sometimes,
I like to run and hide
from
YOU

Every word uttered is my own personal invite into your brain.....i find myself here everyday....hoping to see a message from your heart.....straight to me.... But i love this....and that chorus....is so YOU......granted i really like those things about you, but to read them from you....makes me want to help you appreciate and accept them the more.....Great work.
