why can't i be the person i want to be
i'm losing everything that's dear to me
i only want my family back
the hardest thing i'll ever have to do
and i don't know if i can do it
if only i could make him see what he does to me
everyone says let him go
but it's hard to let go of my destiny
his heart used to beat with mine
and now it beats a faster pace
how can i make him see that we're family; not stangers
it hurts to remember
all the great times we'll never get to share again
he's gone so far away
but he's right in front of me
how can i make him never forget those times
he was my inspiration to live life to the fullest
and then he threw his away on meth
one day he'll see what he did to us
but by then it will probably be to late
