I'M Better
You may look at me ready to talk as i walk past you down the street
Your eyes may be looking at me with envy but I'm better
You ca n shatter my heart into a thousands pieces but because I'm better I'll just pick up the
pieces and laugh at it all
You can hurt my deep chocolate skin with words that are hurtful to one's heart but I know
I'm better so I'll just get over it and shake it off
Should I cry when you hit me?
Shall I get angry when you call me names?
Yes, no maybe? I don't know
You do this because you're jealous, you do this to make me mad
But it's one thing I should let you know and that is I'm better and
I never get mad
