Lee Nguyen Poet I do not know?

Hope & Faith

My mommy strike me last night,
But I promise this will be our last fight,
I'm gonna run away to a place that's bright,
And when I'm gone, her feeling's are gonna be contrite,
I'm gonna let her think that my soul's no more on this earth,
She's gonna regret hitting me, and realize what I'm really worth,
I'm fighting back mentally, using my words as a weapon,
Giving her all these emotions, hope it'll teach her a lesson,
My dad did it when i was younger, man I'm so damn blind,
For thinking the people that gave me life, can be so damn kind,
They gave me verbal abuse,
I was a gift, they misused,
Watch me put my finger in the trigger, and just let it all loose,
Unleash the angel of death,
Tell God take away my breath,
I want this pain to end,
Maybe hope and faith, just might be my friend.

It's in her nature to nurse. Bohemian Rhapsody, brah. " Mama ooo, Didnt mean to make you cry. If Im not back again this time tomorrow. Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters..."
