Peer Pressure

 

When I was in high school

I thought it was cool

To hang with the fellahs

And act like a fool

As I got older, I came to see

That the friends I had

meant nothing to me

Peer pressure is one reason

I wanted to be

A member of a group

Where everyone could see

Peers are people

in the same age group

They influence you to do things

That you don't want to do

They make you uncomfortable

They make you weak

They make you noticeable

They make you cheat

Everyone faces peer pressure

It's nothing new

Not knowing how to handle it

Is something I out grew.
