Restricted Relationship
[Melodic Intro]
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yo, yeah yeah, yo yo

[Verse 1 - Demonic Thug]
Yeah yeah, I know you love me, you created me, so you must be above me, uh
But I also want to be free, want to be me, feel trapped in a coma, please just let me be
You tell me that you mean the best, yet I feel compressed, I hate to be bitter but I'm a bit depressed
I love you but I hate you at the same time, feeling like everything I do is a crime

I know you want to prepare me, cause you care for me, but the future looks grim and it scares me
My friends very compelled, my actions swelled, I'm losing sleep then I wake up in this hell
I feel like a child, restricted to the point where it's beyond mild, yet the real world is gonna be wild, so please treat me like a human, my stress is adding up and it's about to be piled

[Hook - Demonic Thug]
I care for you so much that I'm fucking hurtin, I'm seeing through your eyes your vision perverted
You say you love me yet it feels like you hate me, hate that I'm an individual, and it hurts me
I know you created me, I'm under your grip, but I'm about tired of your bullshit
I really hope that we can repair this, repair this Restricted Relationship

[Verse 2 - Rapping Dito]
Yeah, you trying to control me, I know you own me, but I patrol me, that's just how it is
Spending money in the club shots of patron, I make my own decisions I am no longer a kid
I want to repair what we once had, please listen to dad, I'm tired of feeling like a fucking undergrad
I love you but I hate you at the same time, enjoying myself feels like a goddamn crime

I know you hate my friends, try to make ammends, yet you're so judgmental, and I really hopes it ends
They're not so bad, you give very little chances, I really hope you don't make anymore advances
I really feel like I've been living a lie, I still keep going I have no clue why
I really know you aren't perfect and neither am I
But please listen to my words whenever I cry
