Don't look at me that way!
I'm not stupid!
You can not lead me astray!
Just because we're not adults,
dosn't mean we're ignorant.
We're young! It's not our faults!
You base society on age.
You think just because we turn eighteen,
our state of mind changes?
Outrageous!
Hear me,
see me,
do I seem dumber than you?
Intelligence should be key.
Not age,
or disability.
Some have been through a lot.
Some are just like your stereotype.
Give some a chance! Give them a shot!
You just might see things,
you never thought imaginable.
Just open your eyes society,
and I promise you will see.
