I can scream too I can shout I can kick up the dust And threaten to **** myself I can raise my fist And rage and scream at the world Take the car and run And splurge Take no concern for my actions No need for consequences Because **** the world I can go depressed too I can sulk too I worked to get what I wanted And when I spend Not with my money I feel sorry Because there is guilt I did not have anyone I was locked up I was expected to stay home Do the chores As my mother expects me to Wait for the weekend Wait for my siblings Only to see the beam on my mother's face When her son comes home It ebbed me to see that When I felt like I couldn't bring joy to her And I bite my tongue Fight myself to think it's satan's lie Home alone Stuck in a small house No privacy Because I can't even have a decent conversation With my best friend Without having eavesdropped I can't cry out loud too Because they might hear My room door is spoiled It can't be locked No privacy No escape Stay home There is so much to do Clean the windows Cut the grass Have you swept the floor? What have you done the whole day? That strain in her voice Now I can't do that Because I am miles away But the anger is still in me I didn't know it was Until someone else throws a tantrum That is just selfish That is very selfish I suffered too And I did not have anyone to rely on Though I did have my books My old canine friend The internet that sometimes harmed And my dreams This is my dream Then why this, Why this?

So stop complaining
I can scream too I can shout I can kick up the dust And threaten to **** myself I can raise my fist And rage and scream at the world Take the car and run And splurge Take no concern for my actions No need for consequences Because **** the world I can go depressed too I can sulk too I worked to get what I wanted And when I spend Not with my money I feel sorry Because there is guilt I did not have anyone I was locked up I was expected to stay home Do the chores As my mother expects me to Wait for the weekend Wait for my siblings Only to see the beam on my mother's face When her son comes home It ebbed me to see that When I felt like I couldn't bring joy to her And I bite my tongue Fight myself to think it's satan's lie Home alone Stuck in a small house No privacy Because I can't even have a decent conversation With my best friend Without having eavesdropped I can't cry out loud too Because they might hear My room door is spoiled It can't be locked No privacy No escape Stay home There is so much to do Clean the windows Cut the grass Have you swept the floor? What have you done the whole day? That strain in her voice Now I can't do that Because I am miles away But the anger is still in me I didn't know it was Until someone else throws a tantrum That is just selfish That is very selfish I suffered too And I did not have anyone to rely on Though I did have my books My old canine friend The internet that sometimes harmed And my dreams This is my dream Then why this, Why this?
