Controlled

One night, Momma said that I had changed.
For, I didn't now care about my studies and grades.
Then, she slapped me hard, for I only had a ninety three.
I held my cheeks and ran away, for my tears are going to fell and I don't want her to see.

I locked myself in the room, crying softly.
Thinking that one day, the strings will fade.
For, they made me a puppet, that they can hurt and control.
To achieve their shattered dreams, to fulfill their wanted goals.

And that's, what I don't like. Its to study for them.
For I wanted to study, for me to learn and to imagine.
And not to work the job they've dreamed and to be top's first.
Yeah, I know. Being smart is also a curse.

And now, I am very sorry, Mom. I apologize.
For, I will wait no more, for the strings attached to fade.
'Cause, I am now ready, the scissors is now in place.
To cut the strings you've tied on me, in the first place.
