Seven

Don't tell me anything
Unless you're telling me the truth
If you change your mind later
That's cool
I might change my mind too
About you

People are always cool
Until they aren't cool
Always a bridesmaid
Twice a fool
I don't expect anything
From anybody
Learned my lessons
Made mistakes
Many blessings

I don't let anybody treat me like
I'm a problem
Or I'm a lazy asshole
Who isn't working
Especially not a motherfucker
Fat off their ass on some
Pay that they came into
On a lucky day

I'm happy with my life
That's why I don't need you in it
I got Daysia, she's the best
I don't need you, listen
You can be a kind person
And do some dirty things
Clean out your fingernails
Clean out your ears and
Wash your rings

I put a lot of time into what I do
Just because you didn't see it
Doesn't mean it isn't true
And fuck you
For ever thinking Chet Bet
Didn't pay his dues
Might have been under a different name
But you should know better dude
You should know by now when
You're fucking with the truth
You should be able to hear it
If you can't, that's on you
I'm not taking blame for
Other people's follies
I know where I misstep
A work in progress

I'm not calling you to
Offer my apologies
If you fucked up
You call me
I know I may seem naive sometimes
That's a ruse
You should take me at face value
That's what I want you to do
Don't go digging where you don't want to be
Might see something that you didn't want to see
I'm not an asshole
I'm not a perfect person
Treat me like yourself
I hope you don't see yourself as worthless

I don't carry a torch
So much as I drag the earth
We're going to revolve or molt
Whichever comes first
I'm okay with any outcome
I prepare for the worst
That's why I'm never suffering
When I don't get my turn

I play my own games
By myself
Might sound lonely
But it's better than getting no help
And drowning in the ocean
When friends have a moat
With friends like these
Who needs enemies
