You know what? At this point I'm doing it for me Because I know No matter how much I succeed You will always find a fault You know what? I'm done I'm done doing this for you I'm done living in fear Of you I'm done going out of the house With bruises and scrapes, Not physical ones of course Because once you hit me in the face And that almost put you in jail Your place, But bruises and scrapes on my soul Every foul word you utter Pounds into me like golf ball sized hail Every sacrilegious rant is like your fingers Digging into me with fingernails Every glare is spit in my face So I'm no longer going to care about this place I am going to suceed and fly far away From your razor wire cage Because as much as you want to keep me as your pretty little pet Unlike your husband You haven't clipped my wings yet! And you never will Because in a year When I fly away I will never come back Because I have never needed you And your **** You can rot in hell You controlling *****
