Forgive My Rudeness
Forgive my rudeness
When I get in your way.
I do not mean to glow so brightly
When you put your darkness on display.
I swear it is not out of spite
That I outshine your ego's fire
When it is burning to intimidate -
To scortch my self esteem to ash.
Excuse my posture
When it will not sway your way
The roots are to blame
For this downright defiance
That I stand with uprightness
Though youre wacking away
With sharpened blades of anger.
Do pardon the heights
That my spirit soars
But consider yourself warned today:
They do not stop for any man
So spare yourself and
Get out of my way!
