I'm Only Human

Dad

You think that I am liar.

Burning with some desire to set your heart on fire.

You think I'm not truly me. 

That everything I try to be doesn't meet to the expectations of thee.

You think that I'm just some dope.

You think I just mope and my dirty mouth should be filled with soap.

You think that I'm just some whore.

That I only want to score and want everyone to adore.

You used to relate me to love.

A pure white dove that descended from the skies above.

But I've changed that judgment, haven't I?

You leave me asking why, screaming it to the clouded sky.

Countless nights I've cried.

On the inside I have died, yet you still believe that I lied.

Why can't you face the truth?

I didn't sell out like a ticket booth, but I hurt worse than a broken tooth.

Because you cause me pain.

Even though you think I did everything for my own gain, my intentions were pretty plain.

I try so hard to say that you're nice. 

When really, I should take my own advice and relate you to lice. 

Because in all honesty, you are a parasite. 

You took my innocent white light and made it to where I'd do nothing but fight. 

Did you honestly think I'd quit?

Now that we're split, I couldn't give a shit. 

At one time, I really did love you. 

And now I am blue because I don't know what to do. 

You are my father, after all. 

And even though we brawl I can't help but love you like a doll. 

I just wish you still loved me. 

But everything I aspire to be is something you don't want to see. 

So I guess I'll just stay this way. 

I'll keep my feelings at bay and continue to pray. 

But please remember that I love you, Dad. 

Even if you may be bad, and always tend to make me sad.
