Me,Me,Me
I am a girl with lots of self respect
I have been known to disrespect
But I have a lot of affection
Even though I am not a person of complete perfection
I have been in a home full of neglect
Therefore I know the causes and the effects
I thought I'd found my sense of direction
But really I lost my mom's protection
It's not like what I did expect
Because I had lost all my respect
I think I had lost all my sense of direction
I had to much feeling of rejection
I know I'd built up a lot of disrespect
If only people had more self respect
All I needed was a little more protection
Then maybe I wouldn't have acted out in rejection
