[Verse 1]
She got off the bus on Fairfax
One suitcase and a plastic test
Text from mom she still ain't opened
Let it rot there with the rest

Pink line on the bathroom counter
In a 7/11 stall
Heart pounding like it might break her
Then it didn't break at all

[Chorus]
Fifteen in L.A
Breathing for the first time
Baby on the way
Future in a straight line
Everyone said
"Girl
Your life's over"
Guess they never saw this clover
Growing through the sidewalk gray
Fifteen in L.A

[Verse 2]
Sleeps on a friend's tiny sofa
Works mornings at a corner cafe
Name tag hanging off her hoodie
Saves singles in a coffee can safe

Hears her kid in every siren
Sees his face in billboard skies
Buys a secondhand blue blanket
Feels him kicking
Feels alive

[Chorus]
Fifteen in L.A
Breathing for the first time
Baby on the way
Future in a straight line
Everyone said
"Girl
Your life's over"
Guess they never saw this clover
Growing through the sidewalk gray
Fifteen in L.A

[Bridge]
[Beat drops soft
Just guitar and vocal]
She whispers
"I am not a warning"
"I'm a headline they can't write"
Paints a crib in her mind's corner
Names him out loud in the night (oh-oh)

[Chorus]
Fifteen in L.A
Breathing for the first time
Baby on the way
Future in a straight line
Everyone said
"Girl
Your life's over"
Watch her lift that brand-new stroller
Rolling through the sidewalk gray
Fifteen in L.A
Fifteen
And she's gonna stay
