And it's a lifestyle 
That we live out 
And we do not talk about 
Cuz we are not living proud 
See my mother and my father 
And I know what's going down 
But quiet it is kept 
From the rest of the world 
Because I do accept 
No pity or no sympathy 
Just make the world remember me 
Though promises I met 
This childhood turned me viciously 
And I'm out for respect 
Since simply it's empathy 
That children do neglect
And now upset 
Unable to repress the things I'm willing to forget
I cannot look pass the things I'm wishing to forgive
And so I live
With pent up anger 
Constant danger 
Any second I may slip,
Into a place foreign 
That I visit when I trip 
So bottle up I got enough 
I struggle not to sip
Not Hennessy but vengeance see
Is sweeter to the lip 
And so I dip off 
In silence I can see all 
Through my tears 
I watch as they fall 
Then laugh as I have to
Cuz if I don't I may ball 
Out my eyes 
Over lies
And commitments that they broke 
I stay low and label
Then I forgive em once more 
My family implant in me a moral code
 
Do as I say not as I do 
Till today I hold true 
But tell my children 
I'll do better for you
And though times were different 
Needed better from you 
I plan a future 
And I'm kinda confused 
If you love somebody 
How do u put em through 
What you put me through
You said do as I say not as I do
Till today I hold true 
But tell my children 
I'll do better for you
And though times were different 
Needed better from you 
I plan a future 
And I'm kinda confused 
If you love somebody 
How do u put em through 
What you put me through

And now in this society 
I try and try and try to see 
Someone who takes sobriety 
And holds it to the light for free
Cuz suicidal tendencies 
Say you don't value life to me 
Not a habit not an addict
I just want to have it 
It's not a drug just want a buzz 
And you say you living happily
That's crap to me cuz actually 
You are someone that's sad to be 
Oh I know you had to cope 
You disrespectful bag of bones 
It's people that done been through 
Things that you will never equal 
And in the morning thanking God
Cuz yesterday done had its sequel
You cannot be feeble
Minded enough 
That either of us 
Would ever buy that it was 
So much going on 
That you had to try drugs
So save it for em 
That let you play dumb
I can't afford it
It hurt me too much 
See
I learned right and wrong
Before me writing songs 
Where you can ride along 
And even on my own 
I knew that I was being strong 
Too many tears I cried in life
I knew I had to wipe my eyes 
And sacrifice til I survive
And I can finally live my life 
How I want to 
Cuz quitings what I won't do 
No matter what I go through 
It's no truth in coping 
In open space and mind you
Know who you really are 
But you will never go that far 
Faded and jaded 
Mortal man created 
To be basic and face it 
You faceless now say it

Do as I say not as I do 
Till today I hold true 
But tell my children 
I'll do better for you
And though times were different 
Needed better from you 
I plan a future 
And I'm kinda confused 
If you love somebody 
How do u put em through 
What you put me through
