Never Amount To Anything
You’re the one, who gave birth to me,
I came from you,
Not the other way around.
Why do you fear me?
Do you think I shall mutilate your mind,
I can.
Do you think that I lip about you,
I’m not going to lie,
I do.
I’m a teenager with a mother,
Who I never knew,
And a step father who thinks he’s my dad.
What do you expect of me?
I am stronger than you.
I am wiser than you.
If I was going to mutilate your very being,
You would already be through.
Why do I navigate you.
This is all so backwards.
Why do you fear me?
Why do I ask this?
I am the very strongest.
My energies have mutilated people to insanity.
I am the very being of insanity and suicide.
I deserve to die.
I don’t wish to hurt anyone.
I don’t wish to scare you.
I’ll never amount to anything!!
