Passing The Torch

You're design was flawed from the fucking start
And this whole time spent convincing
You said you believed in me
Your only son so hurt to realize your true motives
Cheated out of my own triumphs
Never again
This is my own path
Now I'm moving faster forward making up for all the time spent bowing down to you
I could never have my happiness with your approval
So I'm giving up on you
And I'm taking back what's mine
That sense of pride lost knowing that the only thing you have ever seen in my eyes was your own reflection
My life will never be a bandage for your broken dreams
I'm not the lifeboat to your sinking ship
Life my life for me
I'm moving forward and never looking back
As you watch my back leave you can save your apologies
They mean nothing to me
And as for you - you've never been wrong? Well you're fucking wrong
