I'm not as perfect as you want me to be,
I'm sorry I'm not as pretty as you wish I was,
I'm not all the names you call me,
It sucks that all we do is fight and cuss.
I can't change who I am no matter what you say,
It hurts to think that you don't love me,
Sometimes I wish I didn't have to wake up to another day,
So you couldn't hurt me.
You're my mother, what else can I say,
You're supposed to love me, you're supposed to care,
But I feel like I'm just an obstacle in your way,
And that you wish I wasn't there.
You're my father, a strong man,
Yet you call me names like I'm nothing to you,
I don't want to be like you, I don't want to be where you stand,
Am I just a mistake to you?
There's nothing I can do to change the way you feel,
All I can do is be strong and wait,
Wait for these wounds to heal,
As God chooses my fate.
