All the time you tell me that you care but when i look up for a helping hand, you're no longer standing there
you criticize my life and point out my mistakes, I'm sorry i don't live this "perfect" life but it's not something i can make
I'll speak my mind when i want to because this really isn't fair i have my own opinions but i know that you don't care
it's my life you can judge it all you want, but don't tell me how to live it, and i don't care if thats how you were taught
i know I'm not the perfect image of what everyone wants me to be but who are you to judge your not so perfect as i can clearly see
you can call me a brat for speaking my mind, but I'm just doing what you do...see it really isn't all that kind
but hey it's your life I'm not asking you to change but how come I'm the one who has to stay the same
see you think you have it all figured out, and my life you've planned it out, but where was my say in the course my life will take, see this time i wasn't the one who made the mistake
this isn't pointed at you, or any friend at that, this is for everyone, I'm sorry but that's the fact
even when it causes conflict i still get advice when really half the time, it isn't very precise
i don't care if you have a problem with everything i do but since when did any part of my life have to deal with you
i think it's kind of funny how you think you know it all, but when its about the life I'm living, I'm sorry but thats my call
i don't care if you get mad when i refuse to listen to your bull have you heard yourself talking, you sound like a fool
i know that you get feed up with me, don't deny its true, but have you ever stopped to think that the problem isn't me...it's you
i know you do this because you care, but the fact of the matter is, is really isn't fair
I'm not trying to seem too soft, or seem UN-tough, but when telling me how you feel do you have to be so rough?
you think all this criticism will do me good, but it just adds pressure, and that's something you haven't understood
i don't know what to tell you, or how to act or what to say, I'm not you, i show you respect, so please show me the same
and if at a time you feel the need to criticize please just suck it up...oh and more thing try shutting up
