lyrics

I find the weight of the world
bringing me to my knees
I fight inside myself
I swear that day lasted a century

I can't escape this crushing feelings
(Was it me, Was it me)
Did I cause you to leave
The idea murdered my being
can't help but feel I was the problem
just a scared boy witnessing dishonor

And after all is said and done
just remember that you walked out
You left a mother, her children
A promise, your seed
A life, A Family
I will not be chained by the wrath of your mistakes
I will fight every day to make sure
I'm not the man you became
The way I see what you did
You couldn't have cared less
From that point on
I refused to wait on someone else to save me

Worthless
You're worthless

So many nights were spent
Tearing myself to shreds
Wishing and Hoping that I would find you dead


Did you ever regret
that bitter end
Cause we'll
never forget the sins you committed

(Step back and breath it in
Just think about the consequences)


And after all is said and done
I can thank you for only one thing
You taught me who not to become
You really know how to amaze

And now that I've grown of age
and can fend for myself
You tried to step back in my life
Out of the grave you dug yourself
I watched my mother's eyes fill with tears
Year after Year
Just turned your cheek away
to not have to witness decay


Worthless
You're worthless

Luckily I've gained my senses back
I became who I needed to be
Despite the lack of a father

Who gave you the right
to cause the pain that we felt
Do you feel like a man now
I hope you feel the burden
of the lives you ruined
and my only claim to fame is this woman who raised me

Worthless
But I'm worth it
