Defined
My reputation
and its precedence
defined me to you
although surrounded by so little truth
mine at least is good
but what about
the girl you shunned
for supposedly getting the goods
it never happened but
to you it did
now you see
only the bad for her
and the good for me
there is no in between
you prejudices hurt
I have to live up to the name you gave me
she is hurt by the lies that now have stood
