Dirty Laundry

People will always pry or judge the life that you’re living 
To be nosy or gossip that’s their religion
It is the betrayal in enemies
Gossip has destroyed so many families
Always talking behind your back when you’re not around
Instead of lifting you up they’re always putting you down
I’m not into celebrity schemes & scandals
I don’t care who is misbehaving, or which couple is breaking up, and why are they being manhandled
Please no baby mama drama
Keep me out of a feud about people being sued 
From on ear to the next twisting everything that they hear
Telling lies and rumors like it is their career
I don’t have time for all this ridiculous nonsense 
Just attention seekers looking for an audience
Whether it’s hidden in your closet or family
Everyone has dirty laundry
