You're in middle school. That being said, I think you're being a little dramatic. At your age it is very normal to butt heads with your parents. Right now you're young and you might not understand why, but as you grow up and as you raise your own kids you'll see why. Your hormones are all over the place. Instead of executing your plan I think you should just chill out. And listen to your parents. Your lucky your dad doesn't hit you. I'm sure he's just being a good parent and trying to discipline you.

Yes +I would say go for it, if your cousins family will take you in. If you think your father is abusing you- go right ahead and do it. Study hard in school, and get good grades, so you can get a job when you are of age, Than you can move out totally on your own.

You shouldn't leave home, every family has problems, running away from a problem only makes things worse,
you might think your cousin has it all but if you do move in you will start noticing the struggles your cousin faces with his parents, but that's when communication comes in handy, you might be surprised on how communicating with your parents will make a difference, but first find a time and place convenient for you both if you have to talk to them individually then do so, keep calm and explain to them how you feel, its a struggle because just like you are facing things that are difficult, so are they.
But first think about the real motivation of leaving home...
Do you want to leave home to get away from problems? Or to break free from parental authority? If so, your focus is on what you’re leaving, not on where you’re going. That approach is like trying to drive with your eyes fixed on the rear view mirror—you’re so preoccupied with what you’re moving away from that you’re blind to what is ahead. The lesson? Don’t just concentrate on moving away from home—have your eyes fixed on a worthwhile goal.
Whatever your goal may be, think it through. “The plans of the diligent one surely make for advantage,” states a Bible proverb, “but everyone that is hasty surely heads for want.” (Proverbs 21:5) Listen to your parents’ advice. (Proverbs 23:22) Pray about the matter. And as you make up your mind, consider the Bible principles just discussed.
The real question is not Am I ready to leave home? but Am I ready to manage my own household? If the answer to that latter question is yes, then you may well be ready to strike out on your own.
Think about your decision write it down and talk to your parents, tell them you would like to speak to them about something important, and if that doesn't work then write them a letter of how they make you feel and what you think will make things better, not only will they see maturity but they will find a way to help you out.
