My Family Rule (Lyrics Version)
Every family’s got its rule, yeah
Mine’s got a few, just like you’d do
Mornin’ sun’s up, I gotta rise
Make my bed, no time to disguise
Ears pierced? Nah, that’s a no-go
Mom and Dad say “that’s how we roll”
But there’s one thing that don’t feel right
No phone for me, day and night
They say it’ll mess with my study time
But I keep thinkin’ they might be wrong this time
Why can’t I have my own phone?
It’s not a crime, let me be known
Talk to friends when we’re apart
Share the laugh, share the broken heart
Teenagers need to breathe, you see
Not just books—let the world reach me
Phone’s not just a screen to stare
It’s a way to know what’s out there
After school, when the work’s done
I can unwind, have some fun
No need to bury my head in books
A little break’s worth all the looks
I promise, less than an hour a day
Enough to connect, not lose my way
Study first, that’s always true
Just let me have this one thing too
Why can’t I have my own phone?
It’s not a crime, let me be known
Talk to friends when we’re apart
Share the laugh, share the broken heart
Teenagers need to breathe, you see
Not just books—let the world reach me
Mom and Dad, please understand
This isn’t just some silly demand
I’ll keep my word, I’ll do my best
Let me hold my phone, finally rest
My Family Rule (Lyrics Version)
[Verse]
Every family’s got its rule, yeah
Mine’s got a few, just like you’d do
Mornin’ sun’s up, I gotta rise
Make my bed, no time to disguise
Ears pierced? Nah, that’s a no-go
Mom and Dad say “that’s how we roll”
[Pre-Chorus]
But there’s one thing that don’t feel right
No phone for me, day and night
They say it’ll mess with my study time
But I keep thinkin’ they might be wrong this time
[Chorus]
Why can’t I have my own phone?
It’s not a crime, let me be known
Talk to friends when we’re apart
Share the laugh, share the broken heart
Teenagers need to breathe, you see
Not just books—let the world reach me
[Verse]
Phone’s not just a screen to stare
It’s a way to know what’s out there
After school, when the work’s done
I can unwind, have some fun
No need to bury my head in books
A little break’s worth all the looks
[Bridge]
I promise, less than an hour a day
Enough to connect, not lose my way
Study first, that’s always true
Just let me have this one thing too
[Chorus (Reprise)]
Why can’t I have my own phone?
It’s not a crime, let me be known
Talk to friends when we’re apart
Share the laugh, share the broken heart
Teenagers need to breathe, you see
Not just books—let the world reach me
[Outro]
Mom and Dad, please understand
This isn’t just some silly demand
I’ll keep my word, I’ll do my best
Let me hold my phone, finally rest
