Negative Neighbor
For those with a slick tongue, are actually depressed
Drowning in self pity as they are unhappy with their current position
Tearing down others so that they may rise
To no one's surprise, they seek the same attention
as those greater than them
Success is eons away from home
Bitterness lives around the corner
Disdain on their faces as they greet their neighbors
Just another day in pitty city
