lyrics

i know when i became a teen
i was proud of being 13
i was the oldest on my team

i know when i became a teen
something changed inside of me
i was the most fearful on my team

when i became the most fearful on my team
i was left to watch my own routines
while coach tossed daring 9-year-olds on beam

now i know he was not trying to be mean
it's just the negligence was unforeseen
i'd thought i wouldn't need retire till 18
