Mum and dad
Sorry for being mad
Sorry for making you burst into tears
Sorry for that moments of fears
Sorry for waking you up at nights
I felt your authority is more and more tight
Sorry for the endless fights
I loved drugs and I was head over heels
I even forget my meals
And I didn’t mind to steal
Banks, cars and I even kill
Without caring what they feel
My crime was clear and obvious
But I swear I was oblivious
I believe that my deeds are outrageous
It isn’t my fault it’s my peers’
Because of their laugh and bad jeers
While trying to give up they call me fool
Yet I’m sure that will understand very soon
That drug aren’t soothing or cool
I promise to try to keep on my way
Because I feel relieved day after day
I know that whatever I utter
Will never ever really matter
To translate what is in my heart
Because you are always right.
