A Self Righteous Believer
every year on the day of my birth
you showed what your friendship was worth
making every effort to swerve and avert
being present because something occured
always last minute and out of your hands
a need to meet the demand and abandon
blagging bad like a selfish mad man
then your birthday comes like a coronation
crowned king of the nation with expectation
we should all make a day of the celebration
stop what we're doing to avoid complication
and that sets the tone painting the bigger picture
because if we didn't enter your home you wouldn't feature
selfish in your zone doing nothing for people
just lie and smoke homegrown thinking yourself a leader
more intelligent than the rest whose minds are feeble
helping them through life a self righteous believer
