what can i do to change your mind about what I am?
always tried to be a good son, tried the best I can.
but everyday and every time I fail,
It’s the same blood running through our veins.
but not the same thoughts running through our heads.
I ask myself again: when will my life become my own?!
I failed in your eyes, but there is more inside of me.
I failed in your eyes, but there is more inside!
the prison in my mind, makes my decisions based on fear, but here’s my savage side:
my private war against your authority
I prefer to be hated for what I am,
instead to being loved for what I’m not.
I always tried to change your mind about what I am.
now I stop and I know my life became my own.
I think you just can’t see the places inside of me,
which would be telling you how I feel
your expectations always become my failure
your expectations always become my fail.
can’t you see my life’s not in vain?
can’t you see my life’s not in vain?
father look at me today. you shall be proud of the boy you’ve never raised: a kid with open eyes and a kid with its own dreams.
I can’t – I won’t sacrifice.
