from a baby to a toddler to a child to a teen to an adult
from a baby to a toddler to a child to a teen to an adult--as a parent you do your best to raise your daughter or son:
you know as a parent you did your very best ever since there life begun
thats why it hurts so bad when they make you sad:
your own children can make you out to be so-so-bad:
they all love to get together and talk about you bad and put you down so-so-low:
to me as there father that is an unfair dirty blow:
they seem to remember not--as a father i gave to them generously all that i got:
all the sacrifice for them and all the good i have done day after day month after month year after year--they now all forgot:
so now as adults--they stand all alone:
no longer do they reside in my home:
financially they are better off than i:
thats why there respect towards me they deny:
i think if i had money they would be so nice:
to disrespect me they would think about it twice:
but now when i have money of none:
they stay so busy always on the run and having fun:
even if i needed there help i feel i couldnt ask them for a thing:
i feel as there father i am just a peon and they all are the queen and king:
im at a point in my life now of no return:
from here on out these kids my respect they--gotta earn:
i will push myself to them no longer at all:
i feel in my life i have made my last fall:
i am going to be the champion that i know that i am:
i am going to achieve everything that i can:
if as a father my own kids are impressed with me not:
then i simply say that i did my best and thats all that i got:
im just done feeling down and low and feeling this despair:
the disrespect from my own family i have recieved to me is just unfair:
so i have very little more to say:
i will simply surrender to god and humbly pray:
