Disappointment turned to fear turned into anger turned into fight back

I’m tired of being your punching bag 

Yes I’m fucking mad 

You made sure you were all I had 

Kicked me every chance I fought back

The ground underneath my face felt like dirty sandpaper 

I never gave in to your savage hunger 

I grew and became a bear protecting my own 

Trying to protect myself only made you stronger but I won’t let you drag me down any longer 

The man you claim to be is a boy tucked away

like Peter Pan you’re scared to grow up 

Darkness and anger hold hands like a claim 

You treated me like trash and called me names 

Now who’s the one with the bearing weight

I won’t let my name get dragged 

Hold me to the night sky I’ll shine 

Kick your ass to the dirt and protect what’s mine 

You never fight fair but I knew that since the beginning 

Your a zombie lost to your own blood 

Thinking you can beat me with your words 

Fuck you and your bullshit 

My kid will never know your name 

You did this to yourself and you know it

Threaten me again 

I’ll break it 

Darken your thoughts with my shadow 

I’ll deepen the story and then crack it

Think your so tough look who’s on top

I’ve had enough
