where i'm from

By: jen felsman

i'm from a 16 year old girl's mistake
and a 17 year old boy's nightmare

i'm from a mother who did what was best
and a father that just didn't care

i'm from a prom night gone wrong
or a date like all the movies

i'm from the windy city
but i still hate the cold

i'm from a 16 year old girl's mistake
and a 17 year old boy's nightmare

i'm from an adoptive mom who loves me to death
and an adoptive father who i'm not so close with

i'm from a family full of fighters
and a family full of love

i'm from a family full of marines
and a family full of nurses

i'm from an adoptive mom who loves me to death
and an adoptive father who i'm not so close with

i'm from a 16 year old girl's mistake
and a 17 year old boy's nightmare
