That's Enough

By ThoughtsOthoughts

I am 20 years old
I am a student at a college
And they still see me as that small girl

I have the education
I am able to think for myself
And they believe I do not know how to anything

I stand on my own two feet
I have four jobs to pay my own bills
And they insist that I do not understand money

THAT'S ENOUGH
THAT'S ENOUGH
THAT'S ENOUGH

I am 20 years old
I am a student at a college
and I am not the small girl anymore

I have the education
I am able to think for myself
and I know how to do many things

I stand on my own two feet
I have four jobs to pay my own bills
and I do understand money
