VERSE 1
Dear Mother, first off I love you but issue's need to be addressed
For once your gonna have to listen to me get shit of my chest
Who woulda guessed you wouldnt notice me bein depressed
I've lived through so many tests, I'm gettin obsessed with voodoo
You say I'm a pain in the ass, but I dont ever critise what you do
Who woulda knew that as I grew up, us two would always argue
But we do, apologies are overdue coz we barely see eachother
And I live with you, but you take more attention to my brothers
So I hide under bed covers, asleep hatin my life, dreamin of another
But you dont got 10 lovers, you not a slut, I praise you on that
As a matter of fact, I cant remember the last time we had a chat
Thats fucked up but maybe it's too late to turn the clocks back
VERSE 2
I know Ian is my stepdad, but I wont ever be pushed around
He's always bossin me about, he's tryn'a pound me into the ground
He's pissed coz I wont back down, bet he's really sick of me now
I wont allow myself to be bullied, so it's like a clash of personalities
Both wanna be man of the house, the families becomin a fatality
Maybe it'd be easier if he wasnt half of a different nationality
The casualties of this shit is none other than us, and it's a shame
Coz I know I can lose my temper, but I know I wont be tamed
Coz to me when Harry died, life suddenly became a sick game
VERSE 3
To Lee, since you were born June 1987 I've loved you, I always will
As you've grown up I've watched my hopes and dreams be fulfilled
I've had the thrills and the tears as you went started to go downhill
But I'm still here, I wont kill all those years I spent lookin over you
People ask me where does your anger come from, what did I do?
Truth is, I care but I can't see what you've been goin through
You grew up around stress and drama, and you've handled it well
At times I could see in your eye's you were goin through hell
When Harry fell sick you couldnt say farewell, that hurt so much
I know it did coz you didnt want people near, let alone touch
I know you smiled on the surface but inside you were crushed
You've been pushed to the limit by feeling like you were alone
But know this..........as long as I'm here your never on your own
And this house has an open door for you, coz it's your home
