Dealing..

Deceitfulness and lies
its like everyone tries
to play the game and place the blame
on shelves on anyone but themselves
when deep down they know its all for show
because they cant take what God has dealt them with pride and love inside
they choose to hate, discriminate, 
judge others for things they choose not to be its not up to you or me
its up to Him not us yet we still make a fuss
over this and that the little things that shouldn’t bother us, 
phase us but we act as if they are monstrous they overtake us
but its our fault we give these people power by the way we cower
down except the few and the proud who say it’s true and say it loud 
no more of this you cant control the way we think or push us to the brink
we have class we wont lie to you or them its not our place to tell you 
how to live how much to give 
so who are you to say the same when actions speak louder than words
you show no love just lack of faith and will you may not kill people
but their spirit is destroyed by the words you say and the games you play
one of these days karma will come your way
but im not here to wait to see your fate 
ive got my own life to live love to give
so while you keep your fingers crossed behind your back 
hoping no one sees what you lack 
I proudly show my flaws and learn 
that happiness is something you have to earn
