I didn't experience what other kids did

I never really got to be a kid

My dad was never there

And I now realize he doesn't care

My mom use to lie all the time

And she had to save every dime

I use to cry myself to sleep at night

I'd wish and pray for everything to be alright

Grandma died and I was a mess

Things changed and then came the stress

I thought things would be okay

But now I hate waking up each day

I have to work to help pay the bills

And im so depressed they have me on pills

Its hard for me to admit that i'm poor

I cant always buy everything at the store

My mom still lies and theres no trust

And i cant help it my tears are a must
