Thanks for Nothing
A stubborn mule
Only I know what is right
I must win every one of our fights
Don't know a thing about me
I'm not your little girl anymore
Living with you is like a third World War
I'm packing my stuff
Not a thing could keep me around
Never have to worry about me "weighing you down"
At only 13 years old
You forced me to grow up
To stay alive, I had to learn to be tough
You had not a spark of interest
Not even a stolen glance at me
Because you never care enough to see
But today I shine bright
Though I had to fight for every inch
Because you made sure nothing for me was a cinch
When I look in the mirror
My eyes dazzle with pride
My fighting mind has opened doors worldwide
So I'd like to say Thank You
But I can't think of anything you ever did
All I remember is you never allowed me be a kid.
