Overcame the rage Of my parents day after day Like a baby goat I was a kid in a cage Tried to communicate That I was never ok Did they ever listen? No, there’s no fucking way Try to kill myself as a form of escape But that shit didn’t play Look, here I am today How many times have you tried to kill yourself? Wait, I guess eight As an adult? No! I was only eight But nowadays my problems are mine And I never tried to be the guy With mental declines Benzodiazepines To stabilize My crazy mind Trying to cope with life But is harder than it seems I know you try your hardest But the hardest truth Your efforts don’t make noise They have no volume Never gave me love, attention Only gave me food You got me into this mess And I’m the one who’s ungrateful? You were so fucking bad So bad, no one can match Wish I was dead instead Of raising a son like that You’re the reason why I am depressed Can’t even get up the bed But you’re gonna blame everyone But your fucking ass And you don’t even know half The things I had to mask‘ Cause in some crazy way I felt like I had to protect Your mother fuckin’ neck From who I am, I guess But now I don’t give fuck I couldn’t care less Overcame the rage Of my parents day after day Like a baby goat I was a kid in a cage Tried to communicate That I was never ok Did they ever listen? No, there’s no fucking way Try to kill myself as a form of escape But that shit didn’t play Look, here I am today How many times you tried to kill yourself Wait, I guess eight As an adult? No! I was only eight I know I’m not great Never had a fucking cane For support in my lane Alone in this crusade You've always bent me to your will Like I was a Mercedes This boy is still a kid But one day will be the greatest I know you were ashamed By the look on your face And the things that you said Yeah, I could feel the hate Never had a fuckin' pound But I’ve always been a weight There were days when you made me feel like a king checkmate He was a dad to me Now he is dead to me Never wanted that to be like this And I was a cool kid Grown and accused Of being wrong for whatever reason Overcame the rage Of my parents day after day Like a baby goat I was a kid in a cage Tried to communicate That I was never ok Did they ever listen? No, there’s no fucking way Try to kill myself as a form of escape But that shit didn’t play Look, here I am today How many times you tried to kill yourself Wait, I guess eight As an adult? No!

No! I was only eight Only eight Maverick
