I used to shut my door
while my mother screamed in the kitchen
I’d turn the music up
get high and try not to listen
to every little fight
cause neither one was right
I swore I’d never be like them
but I was just a kid back then
the older I get the more that I see
my parents aren’t heroes they’re just like me
cause loving is hard it don’t always work you just try your best not to get hurt
I used to get mad but now I know sometimes it better to let someone go
I just hadn’t hit me yet the older I get
I used to wonder why
Why they could never be happy
I used to close my eyes
And pray for a whole ‘nother family
Where everything was fine
One that felt like mine
I swore I’d never be like them
But I was just a kid back then
The older I get the more that I see my parents aren’t heroes they’re just like me
And loving is hard it don’t always work you just try your best not to get hurt
I used to be mad but now I know
Sometimes it’s better to let someone go
It just hadn’t hit me yet
The older I get
The older I get the more that I see my parents aren’t heroes they’re just like me
And loving is hard it don’t always work you just try your best not to get hurt
I used to be mad but now I know
Sometimes it’s better to let someone go
It just hadn’t hit me yet
The older I get

Not all families are happy. The kids don’t wanna talk about their family problems and in school they are happy because some have friends and they also have their classmates who secretly go through the same thing. Though school is boring, you can’t lie that that’s the place where you are happy with your classmates but some can’t relate.

[@Skatcos]

It’s kind of the opposite for me, I have many friends that have tough lives and I can’t help feeling sorry for them. I try my best to help them, but its harder than it seems. It’s like I can’t talk about my problems without me thinking they’re going to think I’m a perfect brat that is just dramatic. If someone wants to help you, let them.

I’m 15 year old, and all the music is created originally by me from scratch. You will be very surprised. It takes so much hard work and it’s hard to get noticed even if it’s good quality. You won’t regret it. I do not have a ton of money, and this is all I can do to show my hard work.

Yup...... I turned to opiates when my parents started hating each other as a teenager. Took MANY years to wake up and realize being numb doesn't make it NOT happen. As humans we have to process and deal w emotions. Not pretend they didn't happen or numb them. As a kid you don't REALIZE how MUCH your parents did for you until getting a lot older. Only then do we appreciate what they sacrificed for US. ❤

[@theharshtruthoutthere]

The real reason singers became world wide pop stars and his solo career blow up was because of the freemasonry hand signs he show`d again and again. The 2 popular hand signs M J used often were 666 and devil horns. In most cases the singer shows at least 4 hand signs and these are: 666 devil horns one eye tongue showing aka mocking. The talent may be there, but the hand signs must be there. Thats how a soul becomes a “rich and famous” singer or actor.

I can remember a time my parents got into an argument when I was around 7 so my sister picked me up and I slept at her place that night. I got a call from my dad, he was at a hotel. He said everything was fine and that he loves me. I was confused and had no idea what had happened. My parents are still together but I know they aren't happy. It's also rough because they weren't like that before I was born. When my siblings were younger, they still loved each other, they would kiss each other goodmorning and goodbye. Now they don't acknowledge each others presence. Growing up with parents who don't love each other isn't fun, I feel like I will end up just like them. But they love me and I have both of them in my life. I'm lucky they love me as much as they do. I just wish they would love each other too.

@@jellyjam751 You still have a lot to learn, teen. The older you will understand that it is impossible to not argue in a family. And also, always remember, it’s never your fault when they argue. Don’t worry.

[@korberon]

You brought tears to my eyes, girl. I grew up in a home where my parents couldn’t find peace with each other. As a child, I was surrounded by constant arguments and bitterness. I made a vow to myself that I would never walk in their footsteps. They stayed together “for the sake of the children,” but it was a mistake that left its mark on all of us. My mum, wise in her way, always said that having children wasn’t the end of the world, that if things couldn’t be fixed, it was better to part ways, hoping that maybe, just maybe, your kids would be lucky enough to have two sets of happy, loving parents. That always stayed with me. And now, after a first marriage that didn’t work out, I’m in my second, and with my new partner of 18 years, we’ve made it work. My daughter is now 22. We all made it through, somehow. You put into words everything I felt as a child, the pain, the confusion, and the hope. It brought it all back. I miss you, Mum. Greetings from Poland.

I don't have any parent's problems but still, every time I hear this song I start crying hard she is just....not only she but everyone deserves a family that loves him and filled with peace.... I really can't believe in this young age she was praying for another family she is really......

Some kids are just lucky to be born into a wealthy family to capture beautiful moments but others didn’t have anyone to do that Edit: Thank you guys for all the stories, advice and anything. I feel you. I know what I’m saying, because I was born from a non wealthy family, until one time when I was in 6th grade my Dad finally had his business great. We went from a tiny rent house, living together with my Dad’s daughter, live in the warehouse where my Dad work for his Boss, until we have our own House and everything starting to be alright. But one thing I know for sure from poor people (not everyone of them) is their mindset and behavior. They’re not ready and didn’t have a plan for the future, so when something hits hard, they’re broke. That’s what happened in my family, when my Dad was having a great business, he cheated on my Mom. But then he came back, so my Mom who’s already broken hearted decided to divorced. Luckily my Mom’s parents (my grandparents) her family and even my Dad’s family were on my Mother’s side. So when our parents divorced they have us, they love us, and they care about us. Throughout the times, my Mother already forgive my Father but she said that she won’t back to him ever. Me and my 2 other siblings respect that. And now I’m in a college, trying to fix anything and build my own dinasty. Having a good education to form a great family. Trying to get us from this bad time. One thing I know for sure. *Money doesn’t always bring happiness, but with money happiness can be reach easier*

[@last_autumn_leaf]

well it necessarily doesn't have to mean that wealth brings happiness. wealth always don't bring you happiness. the perfection of parents is the important thing...sometimes happiness can be there even if you are not wealthy..if you can eat, go to school, live under a roof and have a nice cooperative parents. Isn't that enough to be happy?

[@danisaputra5798]

I never got a chance to hug her one last time, and say goodbye. About some days before the vacation we were listening to this song. She randomly started crying, but I didn’t know a lot about her life when she was little. I didn’t even know that my grandfather used to drink along with my uncle and start screaming at my grandmother and my mother at very late nights. Now that I’m *older* , I realized that.. Life is beautiful, yet so painful. I didn’t talk about her problems very often, ‘cause I was still little but she truly was my hero. I wish I become a good woman with such a great personality and a beautiful smile she kept for me and my sister, every single day of our lives.
