Ego Trippin

Some people always thinking –

They know what they are talking about –

Always trying to show you – 

Always trying to show out.



They think they have it figured –

Their head getting bigger – 

Can’t tell them they are wrong –

They can’t take it, they aren’t that strong.



Trying to put you on the spot –

Whenever they have the chance –

Trying to make their point –

Trying to make their stand.



Half the time they are wrong –

But will swear they are right –

You can’t get a word in edgewise –

Because they’ll put up a fight.



You find these people everywhere –

In church, on the job, even family –

Always trying to be smart about something –

Thinking they are so dandy.



You can’t tell them nothing –

They know it all –

Will argue with you forever –

Their mouth won’t stall!



They figure they got it going on – 

They build themselves up so high – 

Looking down on everyone around – 

Thinking they are so fly.



Bottom line is –

They aren’t that smart – 

Just trying to be someone –

Who they truly are not.



But they irritate you to no end –

Like a bug bite that keeps itching –

So full of themselves –

But are only ego trippin!
