I really hate rude prejudice teachers. I mean just because i don't get some of my homework done doesn't mean that I am a "bad" kid. Just because I wear black does not mean that I hate the world. This one teacher of mine told me that she doesn't care what my family life is like, my mum and little sister are living four hours away for the year for my mum's externship and I am a little....umm...i don't know.... miserable about it and when I told her about it she said that I was just using it as an… Continue

When I was young I was told I'd amount to nothing
I grew up believing it

I have my daddy to thank for this
But it's not his fault
His father did the same to him
It was all he knew
Well now it's got mme sitting here drinking a beer
I don't have a job; just living off fo the government

Locked up inside of me
An animal roars with rage
Wanting, waiting to be released
From its cold, dark cage
I could free it with ease
But then who would i be
I know that someday it could happen
And it eats at me
Filling me with fear, loathing, sadness
I would lose everything i hold dear
I would slip away into madness
It's everything that i fear
