Family's Heart

I would like to be
Who I want to be.
But the people in my family
make it hard for me to be me.
So what do I do
When I'm trapped in this trap?
Do I stop
or do I take my life in my hands,
only to break my family's heart?
My family's heart
Is what keeps mine beating.
Its what encourages me
To achieve farther and greater.
But what do I do,
If I want to be me?
The only way to do this
Is to break my family's heart.
