Illusion
D-Illusion Lyrics

My parents just used and abused
My parents were selfish and treated me poorly

They tried to teach me lessons I have since ignored
Despite their attempts to teach me, I have chosen my own path

My mother is where the problem started
My mother was the root cause of my issues

She gave me hate
My mother instilled negative emotions in me

Taught me how to get angry
She showed me how to be angry and resentful

She took some pills, everyday
My mother was addicted to medication

Another persona
She was not always herself due to the medication

For her to swallow
She took the pills to cope with her problems

I will never trust her face
I cannot rely on or have faith in my mother

Her stupid ego
Her excessive pride was a hindrance

Just a little out of place
Her behavior was not appropriate or justified

My belief will keep me warm
My convictions will give me comfort

And keep me on track
They will ensure I stay on the right path

A subtle reminder
A gentle nudge to stay strong

Of how to win
To succeed against the odds

How dare you not accept the blame
You refuse to take responsibility

For my mental health
For the state of my mind

It's you and only you
You are solely responsible for my struggles

How can a child do this to himself?
How could I cause my own pain and suffering as a child?

An empty feeling made worse, by the unknown
Feeling empty and lacking purpose, and not knowing why

The world mirrors me in so many ways
The world reflects my own struggles and issues

I look to others with a burning sense of envy
I feel envious of other people's situations

But then I think, they're all broken inside
I realize that everyone has their own troubles

Tread on eggshells on a lifetime of dreams
Be cautious and careful when chasing your dreams

Just pick a safe path and choose it well
Choose a path that is less risky, and stick with it
