The people I call Family
They think they know me
They say they love me
They say they know what I'm going through
They say they care
They say they want only what's best for me
They say they feel for me
They say they want me to be happy.......
...................
They lie to me
They call me a freak and dangerous
They try to lock me up
They beat me up
They make me cry
They want me to die
So why do I call them Family?
They say they love me
They say they know what I'm going through
They say they care
They say they want only what's best for me
They say they feel for me
They say they want me to be happy.......

You call them your family because if they treat you like shit because you're different and try to change you so you "feel" their version of happy... But sadly they are the only ones who stay with you through everything...

I feel u on this poem. What your going through is callwd counterproductive. Its when your family or anyone that has raised you tells you one thing and then put you down businesg violent motivation.
