So tonight i crawl back inside myself,
the only place that's safe,
from the paralyzing judgement,
you hand out like free samples of lemon aid,
I have stood and taken it,
thinking maybe if i am strong i can win your love,
maybe just a little pride,
regardless after everything you feel nothing,
you were supposed to be someone i could come to,
someone i could love,
but its hard when all that person does is look down on you,
and i can promise you mother of mine,
what the life i live is driven by,
Its driven by the hate, the hurt,
you caused my heart to feel,
and i know you don't believe in me,
but this i know,
I will prove you wrong about me,
show you who i can really be,
If its the last thing i do,
I WILL NEVER BE LIKE YOU! ! !
