Picking the Wrong Fight

I believe you believed you had the most to offer
better looking bigger brain value in the coffers
based on intellect getting all that it wants to 
lying manipulation didn’t disappoint you
making you lazy, weak and weed saw you detached 
imagination working wonders when you’re sat there mashed 
Ideas say you’re capable with more doe to splash 
with friends so immature also lacking cash 
think behaving serious will outdo young and dumb 
blind to ideas seriousness isn’t any fun 
unattractive making you a one to shun 
not the first choice caused you to throw tantrums 
to proceed your petty way of lying as you do 
to change the view of competition that has bettered you 
now know who is better from not having a clue 
seeking truth to delusions recently thought true
but with a personality lacking a sense of humour 
lies had to be harsh and horrid to rearrange the order 
bringing out a side that couldn’t hide away the slaughter 
of seeing friends as rivals to keep down when they falter 
what they had never done not once at anytime 
after calling on them to soothe your heart and mind 
forgetting confusion felt needing someone kind 
never treated you the best way you could find 
you seemed to think treating them bad could be done and blagged 
gaslighting their simple mind in ways you thought you had 
manipulating them into doing all they have 
conning them safely away from being mad 
thinking they were yours who are easily tricked 
speaking words of wisdom their ideas have clicked
will do as you wish them too there’ll be no conflict 
belief shouldn’t belong in ideas they are thick 
all this time you couldn’t see their plan to play along 
waiting for this day where they would prove you wrong 
when expectations shattered would be  gone 
the thing you believed impossible is their bomb 
never coming back you can’t have it end like that 
things coming out their trap exposing how you act 
secret chatting the unknown common fact 
out of control until you coerce them back 
but everything that’s always worked before
isn’t influential shocking to the core 
messing with who knows you best after feeling sure 
you knew them but then they showed who knows more 
couldn’t see manipulation when it was coming through 
unaware they played you forcing them too 
always met your demands as if they had no clue 
to leave you this dishonest loner nobody but you 
believing what was make believe 
not backed up by reality 
the better option but girls disagree 
the last friend lost was me
