Little Girl, Don'T Play With Me
go on
keep kicking me
keep pushing me down
its all ok
because i am stronger than you will ever be
and i will rise from this punishment
i will rise from this struggle
and triumph more than you ever thought i could
i am capable of more than you could imagine
more than i could imagine
i just know it
your words of hate is only fuel for my engine
your pity is just gasoline for my fire
the one burning within me
you have nothing
so you hurt me to feel something in you
the only feeling you are capable of
hate
it is in your eyes
it is on your tongue
in your heart
and eroding your corrupted brain
you are nothing compared to what you think you are
how can you look in the mirror and not see who you really are
you are lieing to yourself
a lie i suppose you will carry untill your grave
that is no way to live
but you are no longer my problem
strings cut
bridges burned
when you need me it will be too late
because i am too strong to ever turn back to you
you were my friend
but i was wrong to ever trust you
to ever believe i saw good in you
but i learn from my mistakes
another thing you can't seem to do
because i am better than you
you are to racist to see the beauty in
others who are not white
in fact, you are too preoccupied with yourself
to see anything that doesn't have something to do with you
you are living in your own world
wake up
you insecure, insignificant,
self centered, spoiled, selfish,
egotistic, prejudice, ignorant, immature,
little girl
