Everything
who would have thought?
That my best friend would betray me
she fell into your trap once like i did
That this final year in high school
would be filled with so much sadness and hatred
that no matter what i do im always wrong
i had a couple sips not even that strong
had a vape and you said i was through
now im grounded but i had no life anyways
im 17 with a 9pm curfew
I live 30 minutes away from my school and friends
all i ever do is work and school with very little time to hang and chill
unlike most who are hooked on dope and alcohol
i had a few sips and bam the world ended
yall took it to far
yall make my life more hell
we moved and now i have to pay all this money just to enjoy my last year
my graduation doesnt matter
my other family doesnt care
i tried so hard in school
to have honors and the congress
but yet you still say im throwing my life away
i made a few choices to try and have a little fun
and now its like i killed a person
i cant do it anymore
i cant keep trying
its hard to reach your goals and be motivated
when those who are supposed to support you
tell you not to try
The teacher told me not to try
i cant make it as a doctor
so why even try
you cant afford the school
you wont make it if you tryd so why bother
You say im to fat
i cant lose the weight
you tell me its always gonna be hard
and you tear me down more
how can i lose the weight when my own family tears me down
you let your wife control everything,
you let her see whats shes doing
she doesnt care about me just her baby daughter
im the middle child to her
im the lyer and filled with drama
im the one that yall will see for three days when i walk down that stage
i dont want it anymore
i dont want her there
i dont want my life goals
im giving up its hard to fight
when everyone else just tears you down
makes you feel like your doing it for nothing
i cant even have money for gas even after all that hard work
i have all this to pay for
i have been adulting since the age of 12
always adujusting to tthe moving and never making friends
i stayed at this school and drive 36 minutes a day
just so that i wouldnt have to restart my last year
i should have moved and just been miserable
i should have just left like all the times before
i work and work for very little money yet all i ever do is have to pay car inusrance
or pay for the repairs
im 17 and i have been adulting and grown up since 12
my friends get to grow up and be kids a little longer
they got to take there time
but no little old me had to grow up fast
and now as the next step of life is arriving i just realized
i aint starting something new its just slightly different
all work no play
so why am i living
you told me the stories of you younger but say i cant do the same
you yell im in the house all the time, but yell when i ask for plans
you tell me im wasting my high school not making memories but the times i try you say no go away
how am i supposed to be then?
all you let me do is work and have plans once a week
im sick and tired
tired of trying
i just want to stop fighting
just give up
jiust let it go
the worlds better off
now you know
you say i have a perfect life
but all you see is lies
the fake smile the laugh
do you see the tears at night
there marriage is failing
they blame it on me
im the reason everything is breaking cant you see??
