What You Learned Now It Is Their Turn
If they con the majority and all the world believes them
and you are the minority that witnessed them deceiving
they think that it justifies the error you believe in
that is dismissed as your mistake and is a thought for leaving
Expecting you to let it go as you’re alone and you’re a clown
telling everyone you know that you don’t know what’s going down
think you’ll follow others round and do as they do eat the ground
but a wolf wanders with freedom bowing down to no ones crown
when they begrudge you they misjudge too forgetting everything they ever knew
don’t let it bug you as their corrupt view overestimates what they can do
they’ve come to believe you are beneath
because that is the stupid view
see a weakness they think I’ll beat this
blind to any strength in you
You know when you have had your turn
at learning what their yet to learn
and though they act without concern
you’ve been there and know the burn
They aim at you when they see value
you don’t face what you do have too
but they’re desperate to attract you
believing they’ll win and you’ll lose
bringing misery to your mood
when finally they’ll feel approved
but you can see this pointless move
a worthless thing for you to do
with no motivation to pursue
the victory or the gratitude
watch them win they’ll be rude
watch them lose they’ll be crude
it won’t affect your attitude
they’re behind you out of view
