still believe in heroes

My best friend do not got a mommy and he jealous of me
So I hug her extra tight before shes ready to sleep
In the morning I got lot to do and places to be
Mommy crying in the kitchen I pretend I dont see
Then I grab my bag I say goodbye and then she says it to me
As Im walking out the door I wonder whats expected of me
I love my momma and I wanna make her problems go away
But I dont want to see a child in who is parenting me
A couple days ago I sat down in the kitchen with her
And she told me that she hate the way she look
And she get lonely when Im gone cause she got nowhere to turn
So she tried to lose herself inside her book
The conversation ended as Im feeling like a horrible son
But I kept it and I didnt say a word
Because I knew that it would only make it worse
Mommy taught me confidence and now she insecure, ah
Mommy taught me not to be afraid of mistakes
Mommy taught me always to follow a dream
Mommy taught me how to deal with the pressure
But not when the pressure dont belong to me
Mommy taught me always be grateful and share
Mommy taught me always to do what is fair
Its not that I dont care its that I care too much
And I still believe in heroes
I still believe in
Everything you taught me,
Thats why I cant believe your **** ing nerve
You just complain, complain, complain,
I dont think I get the treatment I deserve
Because I think about you all day,
I dont focus and I feel my stomach turn
Then you tell me not to worry bout it,
Ma you would just eat your ****ing words
Shit, took me years just to say this,
So I aint leaving one thing out
When I see a tear on your face,
Is only thing I can think bout
Only thing I want to fix,
If I cant help then I flip out
I saw you cry driving me to school
Then you wondered why I got kicked out
See I thought this shit was okay,
My homie found out and he dont
When I told him I cant hang today
Cause my mom depressed she cant be alone
You taught me not to bite my tongue
You taught me I control my fate
You taught me how to get shit straight
You taught me what is fair, this aint
Shit, I dont want to hear about what could be,
Why the **** you gotta let the past control you?
I dont want to hear about a fight with daddy
Or about the money daddy owe you
I dont want to hear that you feel ugly
Youre more beautiful than you just could imagine
I dont want to be in this position
When I listen thinking you dont know how good you have it
You could be homeless with no money,
When the wind blowing theres snow coming
You could be like dad, living the same life
Everyday and going home to nobody
At least you got me, huh?
At least you got heat, huh?
I want to make it just to make you rich
But a dollar cant sell a pessimist
Look, I wanna be someone that you can speak with
But you always tellin me never forget to be a kid
But I cant be a kid when I see you like this
Cant be myself when I see you like this
Old enough to know my hero isnt invincible
But Im still young enough to not wanna know
Where all the weaknesses is
I just dont think its right
And I just dont think its fair to act
When I feel like I gotta parent my parent
Just for my parent to parent back
I love you more than you know
But I cannot be the only reason
My role model dont roll down a deep end cause
Mommy taught me not to be afraid of mistakes
Mommy taught me always to follow a dream
Mommy taught me how to deal with the pressure
But not when the pressure dont belong to me
Mommy taught me always be grateful and share
Mommy taught me always to do what is fair
Its not that I dont care its that I care too much
And I still believe in heroes
I still believe in
Heroes
