"Under My Wing"
(11-20-04)
From all that we've been through
Doesn't lighten this effect
Seeing for the first time
Wonder what happens next
Enough people kicking me around
Beating me when I was down
Should've shown me love, take the stand
But you cowardly turned your back
Feeling betrayed, slain in the back
All those times I stood up for you
Trying to help you see the pride
Now you grow an ego, a great lie
So afraid to make a move to help
Causing an aura of uncertainty
Do they wonder just as I do
Does he really care or just playing
The boy ran away and hid in
A time of need for someone who
Protected and stuck up, no matter the cost
Shedding light on who you truly are
Stupid mistakes, silent behavior you lead
When I needed a friend, turned your back
When I needed a brother, walked away
Why did I take you under my wing
Now it seems you're talking shit
About how you assume who I am
My likes, your judgments shattering
You better settle this shit now
Already watching my back, I lash out
Bullshit day in, day out, for nothing
I guess you could say I'm hurt
Just another to fuck me though
Maybe one day you'll finally understand
Where you went wrong and fucked up
The damage you call your life
The damage you cause by ignorance
Young man of seventeen, my little bro
Now twenty one and we may call this war
I will wash my hands of this
Will not be sucked down by another
