My Worst Me

Now firstly, you promote the worst me, 
seems your ego's thirsty to cut and curse me, 
elevates you up where you're better and above 
out to win peoples approval who admire you with love  
gifting a social superiority and a validated status 
which looks down on folks like me as useless wasters  
acceptance gives you worth and you feel you are succeeding 
you beat me in my worst light? ne'er-do-well is my rating,
here's your victory, it comes over my worst placing
