You will need to tip it, which means to take off the new set of leaves sprouting at the top. then it will sprout two branches instead of one, you can do this a couple of times.

Your light is either too small or the wrong kind, and it's too far away from your plant. If you don't change anything, yes it will always stay that way.

get some CFL bulbs and place them close to the top of the plant. newbies sometimes try to grow with incandescent bulbs and place them very far away. Marijuana plants can't use the light emitted from those bulbs and especially at a distance, causing the plant to stretch and look for light it can use, along with not properly developing due to lack of proper photosynthesis etc.

Are the lights cfl's?? if so you can have then literally a cm away from the plant without it burning, I have (1) 42 watt and (4) 13 or 26 watt cfls ( dont remember) and they are all literally touching the leaves and have been for weeks and i havent had a burnt leaf since she was a week and a half old.
