Listen
I may be just ranting
 But I need my opinion 
 You say Im crazy 
 for wanting a break...
 For what I love. 
 
 You dont respect me.
 My needs or wants. 
 We fight all the time
 and you dont care.
 
 So please,
 Shut up and listen.
 I may be a teen, 
 But you cant think
 that Im not smart.
 Im not lazy, 
 But I know you dont care. 
 
 You say Im the lucky one
 Did you deprive 
 My siblings too, 
 From what they love? 
 
 Make up your mind, 
 Im not a toy,
 You cant play with me
 I am breakable. 
 
 I know I am ranting
 But what happened
 To freedom? 
 Im trapped, tied
 In the dark. 
 
 Didnt you ever love,
 Feel that you never
 want to leave?
 But you just wanted a break? 
 Listen to my rant, 
 You'll learn a lot. 
 
 Sometimes I feel
 You dont love me,
 But I do love you.
 Why cant you just agree? 
 And listen?
