Ain't no daddy's where I'm from,
It's just mad mothers.
And eyes that still seem,
They can't look past color.
Why am I disrespected by
Someone I should call brother?
And why girls feel unpretty
And constantly hate each other?
Bad air in my lungs,
Man I can't breathe.
My eyes burnin' from all the dirt and the debris.
And it's third degree.
Emotionless on the scene.
It's like a disease
The way y'all killin' me.
[CHORUS]
I'm 16 and I shouldn't have to feel like this.
I'm 16, every young boy out here wanna kiss.
I'm 16, and me and my mama goin' through it.
16 on the block
16 on the block
16, At war [6x]
16 on the block
16 on the block
Around here cool is another word for fool
If he smoke then she smoke,
I gotta smoke too.
Now what would I do if I didn't have a clue?
I'm 16 Y.O.
Asking God oh Why, OH
If my clothes ain't tight,
Then he ain't gone like me.
Eyes on the prize,
So the next girl dress just like me.
I'm so full of promise,
But why promise if I'm gonna just be rewarded
By bad actions.
To him I'm just a transaction.
[CHORUS]
I want you to love my mind,
My smile, my style
I want you to know the best of me
I want to belong without being treated
Like property
Why does this seem like a fantasy?

Review about 16 @ War good song but.. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/9/09
Yeah the song's pretty deep in meaning. But I swear this girl has a proper decent upbringing. So I don't think the song comes from the heart. Other than that it's a great track and her album is fabulous.
I can relate :-) | Reviewer: Queen-Jessica | 2/22/09
Hey, I know how you feels: ima' 16yr old and wearing the tight clothes just to be accepted isn't cool... dosen't mean you can't dress decent. If you got to do all that just to be accepted,then the boy is't worth the pot of gold. FEEL-ME?

love:
