Focus On Myself

My life sits hopelessly empty
Give me a rope I’ll hang
I can’t cope I’ve no energy
stress I don’t give a damn

Cus I gain I lose
It’s a happiness deficit 
A draining fuse 
It happens indefinite 

Selflessly helping others often
to my disadvantage 
be best if I forgot them
progress for my own vantage

Spend that effort on myself
So it’s worth not worthless 
Happiness isn’t through wealth
Good people can’t be purchased
