I was a...

     
         
                                                              pessimist blamer        
         
                         I grew up alone, parents abandoned me        
                                        was always the song, in my playlist        
                                I spoke a different language, in a closed society        
   been mocked for that and forced to forget it completely         
                                 so much hatred, bottled up inside me        
                so many to blame for the anger thrived in me        
     I blamed my parents, blamed my teachers        
  blamed my church and blamed some preachers        
while I was busy being a pessimist blamer        
my life was heading towards a hot glowing flamer        
  five days just sit and staring at a screen        
       two days to wash and burn all the green        
                    the cycle rolled along for a fifteen years        
         and you wake up one day to face your own fears        
              then you make amends, and ask for forgiveness        
        then you forgive yourself as your father does no less          
           you see the light again as the rain clouds disappear    
    as you walk in the dark brighten your path with a flare  
     and now there is a white cloud over my head always        
               to save me from all the troubles in my ways
