parents don't understand

Verse 1) Yo, let me tell you a tale about parents and their ways, Sometimes it feels like we're stuck in a maze. They just don't get it, they're from a different time, Their rules and their lectures, man, it's like a crime. Tried to explain my dreams, but they just don't see, To them, success means a degree and a job with a salary. But I wanna chase my passion, make my own lane, They say it's risky, but yo, it's my game. (Chorus) Parents just don't understand, They think they got it all planned. But we're the ones with the dreams, Gotta break free, let out our screams. (Verse 2) They nag about curfew, always on my case, Can't they see I'm just trying to find my own space? They don't understand the pressure we face today, Social media, peer pressure, it's a crazy relay. They don't get why I'm glued to my phone, But it's my lifeline, where I'm not alone. They say, "Back in our day, we played outside." But times have changed, it's a different tide. (Chorus) Parents just don't understand, They think they got it all planned. But we're the ones with the dreams, Gotta break free, let out our screams. (Bridge) But yo, let's not forget they're doing their best, They want what's good, they just need to rest. They're from a different era, different mindset, But deep down, they want to see us find our set. (Verse 3) So let's meet halfway, try to bridge the gap, Show them our world, let them in our rap. Communication is key, gotta make 'em see, That we're not just rebels, we're trying to be free. Respect their wisdom, but also trust our gut, It's a balancing act, but worth the strut. They may not always understand our grand plan, But with love and patience, maybe they can. (Chorus) Parents just don't understand, They think they got it all planned. But we're the ones with the dreams, Gotta break free, let out our screams. (Outro) Yeah, parents just don't understand, But let's keep striving, keep making our stand. One day they'll see, our dreams take flight, Till then, keep pushing, with all our might
