Even from the first line of the song, I knew it would be a relatable one. The timing was a good one too: I was in my bewildered days as a girl who was about to become a teenager. There was the overwhelming transition from being a care-free child to becoming a young teenager going through changes.
I felt like I could relate to this song because of how I directed the lyrics towards grownups. As a second child, I’ve been unavoidably compared to my older sister. I’ve been told to be more like her and that got on my nerves. What I wanted was to go through my life my way. I didn’t want my life to be a carbon copy of my sister’s.
This song perfectly expressed my sentiment. “I know I may end up failing too, but I know you were just like me with someone disappointed in you.”
