Free from the death grip
Escaped the burdening weight
No longer empowering the evil
Healed from being emotionally crippled
Taking back control feeling free
No longer in the chaos walked away
Not responsible for others actions
Those emotions that dictate behavior
Feelings that are wild with no respect
Never an equal over being ignored
Fighting for a place still don't belong
Family has love but feels forced
Blood means nothing truth is everything

Stopped comparing living life
Got tired of complaining just doing
Not my crowd it's okay to say
Never going to see eye to eye
Never come to terms or agree
Working hard to survive
All the talk not listening anymore
Walked away tired of waiting around
Had your back take your knife back
A stabbing pierce of betrayal
Seen what you stand for
Can't be apart of that and you

Always wanted to be normal
After a failed relationship its easier to be single
The silent treatment from family because communication is limited
Working hard to better the situation
From many friends preferring to be alone
Change and growth learning those life lessons
Trying not to complain make the most of things
At the bottom moving uo in ranks
Not a lead but helping make progress

Trying to do right everything went wrong
It went from a crush to a fling
Not knowing where things would end up
It was over before things got started
A ***** secret hidden from the world
Why can't it be in the open
The love felt had so much pride
On the outside looking in what if
Why can't we be friends anymore
How did this start where did it go wrong
Scenes in the mind stuck on a loop
Trying to remember for understanding
So many x factors not there anymore
Not in that place there's no going back

He helped everyone didn't expect much
Or want anything in return
Use to being disappointed by expectation
Knew what it was like to be set up to fail
Use to wear his heart on his sleeve
Doing his own thing thing
If others benefit it was a bonus
Starting  over learning the basics
Building on a leveled foundation

If I said sorry would you forgive me
I admitted I was wrong why can't things be right.
Use to be a close friend now you see me as a worthless stranger
Just because we are blood doesn't make us equals
You think your better than me oppose our differences
The love became betrayal loathing one another
Use to talk now we are on nonspeaking terms
One sees it as a game the other refusing to play
One giving love the other turning everything into hatred
Talking loud doesn't make it right
Talking about the person instead of to them doesn't fix things
Everyone thinks they are right both wrong full of pride

He didn't clash with people but some treated him bad he took it. The day he spoke up everyone would try to come at him. He didn't overreact or lose his cool because they came at him acting savage so he stayed civil. They wanted him to make a scene turns out no reaction was the best solution.
He wouldn't let them twist his words or make him feel bad pick at him thinking he was weak. They try to insult you and expect you to be rational you trust them but you feel squeezed you know they wouldn't do the same for you.
