No Family To Me

Families are opposed.to help you,
When you the world knocked down .
There opposed to be 
There for you.
But mind knocks you down.
And takes everything from you.
Till you nothing lefted.
They talk about you 
Behind your back.
About how a disappointment
You are to them. 
Cause every time you 
Tried to get somewhere
They would knock you down
And try to keep you down,
Never letting you get anywhere.
Pretending they care and 
There actually trying to 
Help you. 
But it's only for there own reason 
They pretend they care.
But you see the truth 
Behind the mask they wear.
They wear hiding 
Who they really are. 
But they can't hide it for long 
Cause it starts to show. 
And they no longer can hide 
Who they really are. 
Related to me by blood,
But they are no family 
To me.
