Addicted To Attention

Honestly if i'm being honest to me I am addicted to attention addicted to the head turns the hey ma's can I get your numbers? Addicted to being called pretty Addicted to the latest and most eye catching things My routine surrounds around being noticed From the things I say to what I do I don't even think it's an act anymore It's just what I do So for me it's hard to accept some new faces tryna take my attention making me feel less than them Confidence is a wonderful thing but it could also mean my downfall Jealousy might rear it's ugly head I need to stay on top or i'm nothing I don't know how I got this way Maybe a long time of feeling ugly Now I need validation Cause now i'm beautiful I want to look in all the people's faces and laugh cause I turned out good cause now I get attention and I like it But attention is the poison that will slowly kill me Cause i'm addicted
