The Gem of Immortality

You never understood Always criticizing and patronizing You spoke as though you knew What, behind my eyes, I was devising My birthright you hold in trust for me And I've waited for it, father, patiently Still you withhold it, to my misery You say I need more patience and responsibility You say it's mine, if for better ways I strive I say you're mocking me It never will be Long as you're alive Now that I've shed your blood With glistening eyes, I claim my prize The glimmer of this jewel Is mesmerizing; it prophesies Undisputable supremacy None will ever dare to question me With the power in this gem I see I lay claim to immortality
