I want to leave but i'm 14...

(My body)
And I don't have a job (If only) or any other positive family members that will take me in. My mother divorced my father basically right after having me and then got addicted to meth. So my dad took custody of me, it's been a stressful life for me so far, the only times of happiness i've had is when I was too young to understand my life situation or when i'm away from him (lived with my step brothers un-related mom, she'll most likely not take me in again since she's very poor) because he's to "emotionally exhausted" of me or "can't take care of me financially"...
He got a girlfriend who seems to be very much in love with him and is detached enough to not care what he says about her... sometimes..., She deals with him better than me yelling, instead of just falling apart and becoming depressed. So i'm hoping she'll take car of him after i'm gone if I make it to 16 and can get a job and get out of here. I'm planning to train hop and travel a lot (that's my passion, also art) I don't know what's out there and I want to see all of what the world has to offer to me, so basically I want strategies to deal with this man until i'm old enough to fend for myself. Any help at all would be really appreciated.
Here's some interesting link:

I think this one's interesting because I recently got addicted to singing it right before stumbling upon your article ^_^ It describes my feelings almost to a point. Haha
