I have nothing more to give than my heart, if that's not enough for you, then Im sorry but that means I'm not enough"
I've always given you my best
Or at least always tried
In return, its criticism
Or what Im doing wrong
Why am I just never enough?
Why cant you just be proud of me?
But I guess for you
Its better to be screw up
Rather than who I really am,
Its better to act helpless
Than to be this heartless cruel person
You claim to see,
I feel so helpless
But all the while empowered,
That you feel so intimidated,
So resentful that I have my own thoughts
That you feel you have to tear me down
And make me feel worthless
Why cant you accept the path
I want rather than convenience
Why do you want me to settle for less
When you know damn well
I could one day rule a nation
Or at least make things
Better for you?
Why cant you see all this is for you?
It breaks my heart,
It tears me up inside
When I feel I dont matter to you
That others matter more than me
It absolutely makes me sick
That I even question myself
And what I have and want
Just to accommodate for what
Youd approve of
Well I have news for you
Im done having a conscience
Done feeling sorry for you
Im done hating myself because
I cant be the daughter you always wanted
Im not giving you my best anymore
Im giving myself MY best now
So hopefully one day youll see
Who you missed out on
Who you couldnt see all these years
Who you loved less than him
Im determined to leave you
To forgive you but not forget you
Im determined to love you
More than anyone else
And who knows,
Maybe one day youll finally see
Who I really am
And just accept me for me
