Sweet Sixteen

Verse 1: (LaTavia)
You couldn't tell lil' Jackie nothin'
Sixteen, thought she knew it all
She was searchin' for the love she missed, yeah
And so she ran away

Chorus:
Slow down
(LaTavia: You're moving way too fast)
Sixteen
(Beyonce: There's so much for you ahead)
Sweet Sixteen
Do you know where you're running to?
(Beyonce: Do you know? Sweet Sixteen...)

Verse 2: (Beyonce)
She fell in love with a man who was so fine (so fine)
He made her promises, yeah
She didn't stop to think if he was serious (no, no, no)
Until she had his baby
Sweet Sixteen, yeah

Chorus:
Slow down
(Beyonce: You're moving way too fast)
Sixteen
(Beyonce: There's so much for you ahead, oh)
Sweet Sixteen (Sweet Sixteen, oh)
Do you know where you're going to?
(Beyonce: Feel like you've got nowhere to go, oh oh)

Breakdown:
Sixteen years
Sixteen prayers
Sixteen reasons why I care
Sixteen tears
You're sixteen still
Sweet Sixteen
Girl
I know you're feelin' lonely
(Beyonce: I know you're feelin' lonely)
Who you gonna turn to?
(Beyonce: Who you gonna turn to?)
Feels like the world is
Closing in on you
Sweet Sixteen
You need to cherish what you have
You can forget about the past
Now you can start all over
You can start all over and
Cherish your life

Chorus:
Slow down
(Beyonce: You're moving way too fast
You're only sixteen
There's so much more to life ahead, oh ohhh)
Sweet Sixteen
Do you know where you're running to?
Sweet Sixteen (Sweet Sixteen, oh)

Beyonce:
Girl, I know
It gets hard so take it slow

Sweet Sixteen (Sweet Sixteen)
Do you know where you're going to?
