Your Family
by Jean Roy

It’s a constant war
Your family and I
I try to prove I’m good for you
But it makes no difference in their eyes

If only you knew the pain
That I felt deep inside my heart
Knowing that your family
Is trying to tear us apart

How could I change
Their perception of me
Id love you regardless
Even if you had no job, no car or money

It’s not easy
Knowing all they say about me
And on top of it all
I can’t change how they would rather have you be without me

I’ve done nothing wrong
For them feel the way they do
If only they could grasp the fact
Of how much I’m in love with you

Seems like this is my punishment
And loving you is my sin
Its like they got me playing this game
And there is no chance that I could win

I wish there was a way
To prove
That you are meant for me
And I am meant for you too

I just wish
That your family wouldn’t spite me
Because it would mean the world to me
If they gave a chance to like me

But I guess it’s a wish
That wont come true
Because they all believe
I’m not good for you

I wish there was something I could do
To prove I’m good enough
But sadly I have to live with the fact
That I don’t have your family’s love and trust

I wish in my mind
I could see what I’ve done wrong
So that it could give me justice
To why their hatred for me is so strong

If only they could open their eyes
And not constantly debate me
If only I could stop this never ending cycle of pain
And have your family not hate me

Id finally be happy
Knowing the simple fact
Of being able to love your family
And receiving their love with open arms right back
