I woke up

for a split second in my life I agreed with you

and I accepted what you said was true

and when I woke up from that daze

I suddenly felt enraged

I was being lied to

and you almost convinced me that my side was wrong too

but my side is my family, and I dont care about you enough

to leave my family behind, that kind of love is enough

and you mean nothing to me

I almost sacrificed my life for you, almost blindly

with the illusion of choice that I was given

but you chose for me, shaped how I was living

it wasn't me choosing

it wasn't my voice you were using

and then I realized that you're a control freak

and the thought of my choice differing made you weak

enraged you, because you felt that you were right

but you couldn’t stand me stepping outside your sight

but why am I wrong to do what's always been done

and why are you right to say I'm the wrong one

because you're a control freak

and you're a murderer too, if I speak

you think that I'm stupid for being against you

but you're straight up evil, and you dont even think it through

and you're too scared to think for yourself

so you leave that thinking to somebody else
