Liar

Dear mom, Liar… That’s what’ve called me all my life I’m tired My heart hurts You think I’m selfish When I know that’s the last thing I am I’m the most unselfish You don’t get it Pushing me away Hurting me It needs to stop It’s killing me I’m angry with myself I don’t know what I did To make you feel this way about me To think I’m a selfish liar What did I do ma Is it because of the predisposition Is it because I was born by some druggies What is it ma There’s things that shall stay unsaid Because sadly you wouldn’t believe Even if it was written in the stars It’s sad I gotta live my life labeled Labeled as a liar a selfish liar When’s it gonna stop ma I’m tired ma I’m hurting ma Oh please ma, what did I do
