You never own us.

Funny how you think you own us after all these years.
I don't remember you being there for us much except maybe financially.
You want us to go back to a house you call a home by blackmailing us.
You say we treat that house like a hotel when you've been doing the same thing since as far as I can remember.
You call us liars and gold diggers when you're are the liar and you married a gold digger.

You don't even know us and yet you think you own us.
You make us feel unwanted and yet you call us your children.
You pushed us aside and turn around and say we're ungrateful.
You put an invisible standard and don't stick around long enough to see us succeed.
You only come around when we fail and when we fall you stand there and punish us instead of teaching us.

You think you own us by giving us money.
You claim you gave us everything we ever wanted but we hardly got anything.
You stopped taking us out, you stop talking to us, you stop being a father to us and you expect us to continue being you children?
You stopped when you lied to us.
You stopped being a father when you had another child with another woman.
We've seen you with your new family and I don't remember you being that way with us.

You think you own us... but you never did.
