Initial Thoughts of Hatred (Extended Version)
I'm sick and tired! So very tired!
Of you putting me down
From now on... I'll just stand up!
On my own two feet...
I refuse to put up with your trash again
And I refuse to just stand and take it
I won't allow you to mess with my mind
No longer will your threats bother me
You may try and scare me if you like
But any word you say is useless
You have no control of where I go
This is my life! Not your own!
I don't want you to look at me as a trophy
Because I refuse to go down the path you want
There is a time when one has to grow up
Enough is enough! I'm forced to leave you
No more of your lies will enter my ears
I refuse to take part in it
I have to try and make it myself
And it's my choice to suceed or fail
I "hate" you
I "dislike" you
I just don't like you!
I'm sick and tired! So very tired!
I just want to be away from you!
I refuse to have someone else dictate
My very life...
The sooner I escape, the better off I'll be
Though it may seem hopeless at the moment
I admit that I have made alot of mistakes
But I promise to not repeat them again
I am not a perfect human being
I am prone to make many mistakes
But at least I will learn from them
Unlike you! You're just a hypocrite!
You expect too much of me and its wrong
And when I fail, its the end of the world
You make life seem harder than necessary
Especially after I have grasped it already
If I were to share my knowledge
Then I bet you'd be amazed
It will rival even yours
Or should I say eventually surpass it
You "fear" me
You're "afraid" of me
You are "scared" of me!
That's how it should be! You're scared of me!
And it should stay that way
Since you think that, you try and put me down
Bt it won't work...
I "hate" you
Go and "hate" me
I don't need you anymore!
Go and "fear" me
I don't "fear" you
You're really nothing to me!
I'm sick and tired now! Very tired now!
Just leave me be!
Stop trying to... torment me
Any further...
My respect for you! Is gone now!
Just go away!
Getting rid of the... trash in my life
Is the first step to my happiness!
