I Am a Victim

Life treated me harsh & unfair
I deserve your pity & respect
You’ve got it made … more than enough
Share some of it with me
Soften your heart and you’ll be blessed
even though I’ve done nothing to better myself
because it was too tough
And whilst you worked hard
to get where you’re at
I slaved too, but complained more
I folded my arms and admired your success
I have a right to
‘cause I’m the victim!
