All On My Own

I kick the shit outta that kid daily. 
Gives me something to do to feel important. 
I wanna shorten than chain length of insecurity that drags around behind me. 
See, he's really small, not tall,
 quick fall and his lights are out. 
I look down on him and feel like a king, 
livin' the dream... 
Because I can't at home. 

It's sorta weird,
I am all alone but that kid,
I matter to him.
I am somebody to him. 

And really I am just passin' the buck,
 Who gives a fuck whether it's right or wrong. 
it wasn't long ago that my ass was being handed to me... 
but that was in 6th grade... 
I am a big 8th year now.
 I own this town. 
And as long as I am around, 
Someone's gonna feel my pain, 
Because I can't handle it all on my own.
