Talk About Me

People talk
Talk about me
They talk about you too
But I don't let what they say get to me
They say I should be with them
They only wish I was like them
So go ahead and say what you wish
I'm not you
Talk about me
Act like I'm not there
Say "She's not good enough"
I'm sorry I can't be prefect
Even if I was
You would still not be happy
Talk about me
Judge me
Point at me
Say "She's crazy"
I don't care
You're not me
So go ahead and talk
