Unlock the pads
Get your keys
Is this what i've been waiting for?

Got married
Earned an eternal mate
Had a kid
Have the next half of my life working

Getting a car
Getting a home
Having a family
Isn't that another lock?

So tell me...
When will i get the right keys?
When i'm 50? 60? 70?
Or maybe when i have my last sight?

Ain't looking for freedom
Just curious why most humans perceives these as perfection
I'm laughing because i've become one of them
Yes, a laughing stock

Mummy said..
When you're older, you get your freedom.
How i wished mummy still locks me in her arms.
Daddy still hugs me when i was an infant.

I really miss those times...
When my brothers disturb my sleep.
When i got irritated with mum constant calls.
When i screamed at my dad for his naggings.

When i lie on my very bed looking at the stars that i've pasted on the walls.
When i drive out at night to prawns with my friends.
When i spend money without considering.
When i studied without knowing what the lecturer was talking about.

When i was still a little girl.

Baby girl...one day you're gonna ask...
When will i grow up..
How i wished i could tell you that...
Mummy never wanted to grow up.

So that's when they say
Marriage is a life-time commitment
And a baby can mean everything else that doesn't
Well, that's for the rest of your life.

I love them.
I truly do.
The only targets i have in my life now is purely for them.
I have just proven the first two statement right.

I want to ...go for a degree...
it saddens me more when i see my best friend doing it
while i have my commitments that...
makes it impossible.

I want to ...be free without restrains...
but you know it's impossible..
with baby girl..
you know it's never gonna be possible.

I want to ...do so many things...
but i simply cant.

Remember when i was younger...
Mum always say.. a marriage ties you down..
She got engaged at 20.
And she told me that's one very thing she regretted.

Oh yes mummy...

i got married at 20.
gave birth at 20.
tied down at 20.
regretted at 20.
