Don'T Bite the Hand

You wouldn't believe how good it feels Just to have you out of my life. All of you who thought everyday of new ways How to use and abuse me, gone for good Taking my kindness, my generosity For weakness. It's people like you who will never know There is true happiness in helping someone in need Somebody who doesn't abuse The helping hand I extend in good faith. You chose to lie to get what you wanted Even resorted to being and then Being disrespectful. And when you bit, I took my hand back You told lies, called me names, called me the liar If you can't make it on your own You can find a way to get what you need Without bleeding me dry. I found a way. After I got caught in a hole of debt Still buying you things you needed Putting you over myself You took it for a weakness when it really is a Strength to be able to go without to help Somebody who needs it more than you. Now I have more to give to those who Don't take it for granted. And more for myself. So thanks for screwing yourselves over
