Rage in a Cage

Why won't people just leave me alone,
Who would of guessed, who would of known,
The terrible things that they did to me,
Are in the distant past now, and history,
The battlescars I got, while they dragged me through hell,
I carry them proudly, they have a story to tell,
They created a Monster, Hungry for Power,
Needing to Destroy people, to make them Cower,
Why do I have to lash out, try to make them see sense,
Rather than just forgive, my ignorant and lousy parents,
I tried forgiveness, and to just move on,
But I feel a need for revenge, the need is so strong,
Now that I'm older,and have kids of my own,
It has raised questions, that need to be known,
Like why didn't they love me, like I love my Girls,
They are my heart, my everything, the rarest 3 pearls,
The things that are most precious and sacred to me,
I need not for affection from strangers, to flash my Money,
To try and pretend to be something I'm not,
I don't know if they even realise what they have lost,
My respect, and the love from my little tribe,
It feels good to move on, but still, something has died,
For years I reached out, tried to forget what I've had robbed,
Over all of these years, how many tears I have sobbed,
No more, I've had it, I'm moving on without you,
I won't sit here stagnant, miserable, feeling blue,
My waters are flowing, the sky is slowly clearing,
To not have your Dead weight, is such a good feeling,
I can't control this monster anymore, and I don't want to,
You have to let me go, release me from this Zoo,
I've been in the shadows long enough, it's time to take the stage,
I need to unleash this beast, I can longer put my rage in a cage.
