Product of Your Enviroment

A father who constantly moans at you and puts you down all the time.
An absent mother living with her lover see's you on the weekends.

You listen to him putting her down
you listen to her with her new found

Older sister mentally ill, father moaning about the bills
Anxiety and fear a broken family

From one home to the next feeling constantly preplexed

You listen to him putting her down
you listen to her with her new found

Grades are crap at school holding it all in like a fool
Did either one ask ''how are you'' or ''how does this make you feel''?

The anger sets in where do I begin It will never leave me
it stays with you till the end.

Your always to scared to express how you felt and what its done to your head
cant get to sleep cause your minds full of crap feeling like your gonnna snap

Its now to late for me to forget but I wont allow it to damage me no more I want to close that door.
