Graduation
You’re gonna miss me when I’m gone.
True. Those are the lyrics to a song, but let’s be real here for a moment.
You know you need me, just flat out admit it.
I’m tired, you’re tired, just forfeit.
I’ve had enough of your games, and lies, and distractions.
I’m going to take the fall for my own actions, and tell you that I’m done with all of your shit.
Your put downs, your criticism, all of it.
You like to play games huh? Well, here’s a one for you.
When I’m gone and living my life, what does that leave you to do?
Be sad, and alone, wishing there was a way
to go back to the past, if only I had the time of day
You’ve had your chance, I'm telling you now I’m through
How many times did I cry, how many times was it because of you
You’re not helping me by hurting me, you’re not making me stronger
Maybe if you smart for a while, you would know it’s wronger
To criticize your own kid, for every little thing they did
Instead of caring and loving them, because they did their own thing
You think you’re some kind of fucking angel, who's got it all figured out
Oh i wish you knew, yes if only you knew more about
All the things that make me, me
Yes, if only you knew, i think you would’ve cared to see
How far I’ve gotten, it’s no thanks to you
If you’ve forgotten, I'll tell ya. It’s from all the chances you blew
So goodbye parents, goodbye stupid rules
It’s my time to go, it’s my time to school you fools
Next time you see me around, please don’t make a sound
Cuz if you do, you’re gonna wish you didn’t when I leave you on the ground
How’s that? Sound fair to you?
