Steps

when i beat my head against the wall of convention the blood i taste is everyone's i fought a battle thought unpopular for stakes nobody seems to see nobody sees but me one step forward two steps back come on and try me my pain is the pain of children my heart is burning with their shame when mother cries all day i'll wipe those tears away you can't grow up healthy in a house of for every father holding back the angry fire until five when it festers on the drive his boss has shamed him to tears he should "take it like a man" but he never had a man to tell him
