Being Blamed
Ever since she’s moved in I’m the one who always gets blamed
 Trying to get me to admit to something I didn’t do and feel ashamed
 Blame me for stealing food in the middle of the night
 She’s so sure I’m the culprit and to me that is not right
 
 She never assumes it’s my siblings like they are innocent and sweet
 But unlike my brother I’m not the one who had wrappers in my pants from treats
 I moved out once to stop being blamed and to be happy
 But had to move back after two months away which was crappy
 
 Telling my dad to do whatever makes him happy is a thing I regret
 I am happy for him but I will always wish her and I never met
 I’m a liar and a thief in her eyes not once ever blaming my brother
 She will never be a mom figure to me and this makes me glad I never grew up with a mother
 
 I tell myself when I’m 18 I’m leaving and never coming back
 That I’ll stay up as late as I have to the night before to pack
 My dad knows his kids and knows that I don’t steal
 But he don’t want to make a scene and to him it’s not a big deal
 
 I know my dad loves me and wants the best for me
 But it’s hard when your innocent and you want her to see
 I’ve made mistakes that have made me cry throughout the year
 But I know my friends trust me and they are always sincere
