Family against Familia

by TaWlIa   May 4, 2009


Where did the love of Family go
It just seemed to have disappeared
Right after I grew up
To be my very own person

Mother, mother
Why did you fade to be just a stranger?
I don't even know who you are
Do you even know who I am?
You never have time to stop by
To say hello
Or call just to tell me you love me

Father, father
Why did you fade to be a friend and not a dad?
I'm beginning to forget who you even are
Do you even know who I am?
You never have time to stop by
To say hello
Or call just to tell me you love me

Family, family
Why did you all fade into just neighbors?
I feel like a stranger in your home
Do you even remember I am you daughter and sister?
I can't invite them over at all
Because my parents don't even know me
And they feel I'm gonna do something wrong

Madre, Madre
You've grown into my true mother
Your not blood but your family
It's funny
You probably know me better than my mother does
There is always time for us
Just to spend together
And you tell me that you love me

Padre, Padre
Your a friend, but your also the person
Who took place of my dad
Your not blood but your family
You know me better than the person I know as my father
Your not just a friend but your also a father

Familia, Familia
You all feel like my actual family
Even though we're all not real blood
You treat me like I'm part of this family
Like I'm a daughter and a sister
I'll trust my life into this very family

My true family never takes time to see me
They always have time for other stuff
But never for me

My new family takes the time to care
They have time to stop by
Just to see how we're doing on our own

Familia sticks together.

    Very true!
    these days most families dont care about each other, they dont call or even say hello when they see each other on the street!

    thumbs up! keep writting...
