She Is No Better Than Me

11/5/22 On a damn lot It's always blast off Still out to hit the jackpot For too long I've gotten nowhere and I know I am Still a lonely man Not all goes to plan Across an unholy land Where precious resources are mostly scant Too many don't understand Quick to show their hand Took everything not just a right hook Rarely was I shook You've no idea how much time it took Lives were put In the sky or brooks She's constantly judging people by looks Like a book She's always shallow For less people got hung from the gallows Damn son She thought she pulled a fast one Looked back none But the war I already had won Because her impact was, like that of a capgun Now that that's done Regardless if it ever was good enough Still I stood up Always it took much Otherwise it was easy to remain hooked and stuck Too often people would bluff Attempting to look tough Yet so quickly they were shook up Before another could wish them good luck Life comes with set backs I often wear Jet Black With good reason less chat You bet that In ten flat She taking a step back I've been down bad or up good above the sewer Always pulling off a bunch of maneuvers She thought I was just a loser And drug abuser Believing each and every other rumor All of it brought me much humor Truth be told she is no better than me Never once tried to reach out Peace out From the picture she's out Still it's all the same and a shame Often playing the blame game
