I frowned and walked up to my small room

I frowned and walked up to my small room. The only one that was in the house was my little brother, who had taken a nap. Not a whisper was heard. Lightly feint music could be heard from my C.D. Player. I always kept it running. Always. When I slept, when I ate, when I did my homework, it was on. I let the lyrics flow to my ears

I could be mean
I could be angry
You know I could be just like you

I'm not mean, I may be angry, but I'm not mean. I care. I do. My father tries to make me "strong" by making me appear evil and tense. That's not who I really am…I'm more then an Uchiha, I am Itachi. I am my own person. I am me. Not you.


I could be fake
I could be stupid
You know I could be just like you

He smiles at me as if he cares. He smiles at my mother as if he loves her. He nods at Sasuke as if he approves of him. He hates us, most of all he hates him, my little brother, Sasuke. My father doesn't see the beauty and intelligence that his youngest son holds. He just doesn't understand Sasuke like I do. No one will understand him, except me. I'm not like my father, I'm not…stupid.

You thought you were standing beside me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

He always interferes. Always. I hate him so much. Whenever I want to go on a "dangerous" mission, he always suggests that I don't go. I hate being his son so much. He expects so much of me and when I try to do something, he just shoots me down. He denies me what I want, how I want to succeed. Perhaps he's just scared. Yeah… he's afraid I will surpass him, Hell I already have, people call me a "prodigy" of sorts or something along those lines.

I could be cold
I could be ruthless
You know I could be just like you

I could be weak
I could be senseless
You know I could be just like you

You thought you were standing beside me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

He always acts like he knows everything. He acts so cold. He has no idea what he does to the rest of the family. He affects us badly. He always makes Sasuke feel disappointed in himself. He always makes mom feel bad for caring. He tries to make me feel like I am just a tool. I'm Just a tool, of his.

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You're wrong if you think that I'll be just like you

Another way that he interferes is when I'm with Sasuke. He always wants me to put Sasuke down like he tries to put me down. It doesn't work. I love my Otousan more than anyone else in the world. I really care about him, he's my brother…and I just care…

On my own, cause I can't take liven with you
I'm alone, so I won't turn out like you
Want me to

I won't turn out the way he expects me too. I will not just oblige to everything he asks of me like a dog. I will, kill him…
