You don't trust me

No, you don't understand me

No, you don't want to understand me

Because you want me to do things your way

Shhh.

I just want peace and quiet

Don’t come in my room

Don’t guilt trip me into doing something

I said I don't need nobody to push me

I push myself

You can’t make me do stuff

You have no idea what my goals

And the goals I set for myself

And the pace I am moving in

Remember things that come easily for you don't come easily for me

So please pipe down

I am working even if you don't see it

You don't have to know my every move

So shhh.
