Child No More

Do i look like a child i  dont think so
your yelling at me telling what to do and where to go
i am wise enough to no i am not a child
but your acting like i'm insane and its driving me wild
Hello i am fourteen now not four
but instead of listening you scream at me more
this is my life and i will do it my way
il live my dreams the way i say
i dream of many dreams that dont involve you
i will follow my heart and do what i have to do
so let go it's not like you care 
your 43 now and loosing your hair
your son is unemployed and stil lives at home
and no education which is actually known
you care about him more than us
no wonder nat left took a bus
so im left with all your mental abuse
now she's gone what is the use
