Change

Why are we born?
If there's nobody to be proud of you.
Whats the point in success or failure,
If nobody cares a damn about what you do!

Why don't we all just quit?
Why don't we all just give in?
Why struggle for nothing,
when either way its gonna end up in the trash bin!

I can never make anyone proud,
especially my mom and dad.
I try my best to keep em happy,
I just make em angry, and I end up sad.

My life sucks!
Truly it does.
I have no meaning,
my dreams are a fuzz.

The only time I'm peaceful,
is when I close my eyes tight.
Shut from all of the world,
nobody, nothing, to argue with or fight.

My parents hate me,
they aint gotta say it!
The way they show it to me,
they don't want me a bit!

I'm grateful though,
to my so called family.
For taking care of me all these years,
for a while they kept me happy.

Whatever I do,
Is always a mistake.
I can never do anything right!
I'm big fat screw up, a big fat fake.

My baby girl is the only one right now.
She believes in me, and gives me hope.
She holds my hand with infinite love,
She always makes me smile, and never ever mope.

She's an angel she is, nothing less
Sent by god himself to me.
She rids me of my strife and suffering,
She lets me be who I wanna be.

But I swear to god, its never gonna be the same.
My sweet parents are gone, and the sweet me along with em.
I live  for you now baby, and nobody else,
The blood in my body, the star-struck gem.

Thanks mom and dad,
for all that you've done.
I love you a lot,
I miss you a ton.

i can never imagine a world without my own parents...even if my dad is not in my life as much as he used to be, i understand the circumstances. and even though a hate has developed somehwere, i still love him and my life will not be the same without him. and without my mom, i can never live unless i have something to live for. this touched me deeply. thanks a ton, Tesoro
