I'M Not Your Enemy
Bipolar by nature
Sick in the mind
You and your antics
I just don't have time
You as a role model?
Don't make me laugh
You're clueless,
I would be foolish to follow your path
I'm glad God called me out
And made me His own
To learn His ways
And make Heaven my home
If it wasn't for Him
I would be just like you,
Mean. Selfish.
Lost. Confused.
Ice cold,
Completely dark
I guess some people
Just don't have a heart
Only when you can benefit
Do you like me around
But other than that
You don't make a sound
It's quiet. Silent.
No words are exchanged
It's hard to believe
That we share the same name
We share the same traits
Same genes, same blood
You call yourself a parent
But you show no love
I'm glad I'm mature
And God made me wise
He gave me discernment
To see through your disguise
To know how you see others
Is a reflection of how you see yourself
And the pain you cause me
Reflects the pain you were caused by someone else
But I'm not the problem
So don't take it out on me
I am your child
I'm not your enemy
