Can't Function

I can't function with a dysfunctional family

It ends with I.L.Y

I love you?

Ion think you really do

I's a shame I get shunned for doing what's right

But yet my brother stays out getting high all night

Why did you send me to this family?

When it's clear the think nothing of me

Maybe if iI close my eyes and dream of the perfect family

I will get the respect, trust, and equality

But why make it a dream when I can't have it in REALITY!
