Self Righteous
You point your finger
You laugh at our shame
You boast of your body
and lack judgment of fame
You beg for attention
And call it dimension
You cry for acknowledgement
And welcome any argument
You blame everyone but yourself
We are all wicked,
We are all cruel,
You fail to face humility
and yet, we are the fool
What a lonely life you lead
When you’re always right
And cause unity to secede
Everyone is so self righteous
Forgive me for naming the injustice
Call me friend or call me foe
It really doesn’t matter though
When you’re the only one I see eating crow.
