My father has threatened to leave More times then he said he’d stay Made my mother cried more tears Then he voluntarily cleaned up Hurt my brother More times then he’s helped him Called me names More times then he’s fought them My father didn’t associate himself with me till I was nine He forget my birthday More times then he remembered it Took credit for the gifts my mother wrapped till her finger bled Ate his cheeseburgers While my mother was at the gym Because he said she need to lose weight Before she bought that dress My father is a monster More then he is a man
