You fiend

You took

Everything

Away from me.

I've tried,

To compensate

For your lies

But I can't thwart fate

Because apparently

I'm supposed to be

The one no one sees

Not really me.

I can't be happy

I can't be sad

Made to be your robot

Thrown away the key and locked

Its not about me

It was never about me

All about you

Nothing you said was true.

You took it away from me

You took away my life

Now I'm too blind to see

That your holding that knife

But I already know that

You've stabbed me a couple times

Scared away the cat

What I do to rhyme.

But its true

You've scared him

And me

Wonder what's going to happen to you

I've always 

Wanted my revenge,

But I can't have it

I'd fall to sin.

I'm not religious

But I believe

That the most important thing

Is to be happy

But I can't have that

I try to give it to others

And will continue to do so

But they have true fathers

Biologically correct

But still a bad, fake one

Wonder if its a defect

Wonder if its not too late to run

What can I do?

I'm born to be your slave

No one in this family

Can surpass you

I do what you ask

I do what you say

Every single task

No other way

Born to be your slave

Not allowed to rave

Caged in this cave

Don't have a haven

Because he took that away

He took what I had

What became me

Essentially making me sad

What am I to you?

Absolutely nothing

What do you want me to do?

Just about everything

I do homework,

I do your practice tests

I do house work

Not allowed to rest

Everything you mapped 

Was just extra crap

"For my own good"

Or is it really for yours?

I was a coward

I true coward

And I followed you

Because you seemed true

But you slowly

Eventually

Locked me in

An eternal cage

No key,

Just a lock

Can't see

Just rocks

My life

Isn't mine anymore

Controlled by you

Difficult to the core

Never had my way

Never dreamed anything big

Decisions made by you

Making me sick

I've tried to fight back

I've tried to negotiate

I've tried every way to get around you

But there is nothing I can do

Helpless

Tired

Lifeless

Wired

I'm so stupid

I can't control that

I'm really useless

I can see that

Really

I'm just nothing

Something

To be used

Something

To be stepped on

Something

To be laughed at

Really

I'm just a doormat

But there was one thing

That made me happy

Made me dream

Made me able to see

But you took that away too!

You took what was me

What became me

What I loved

And for that

I can truly say

That I hate you

In every which way
