Worthiness

Looking at me
Why you trying to name your price
Telling me my worth
Somethin bout you never seemed right
Trying to compare
Where you think I should fail
Because you can't prevail
Why you even think that-that's right
Do you have a smaller offer
Cause I ain't worth the buy
Are you ashamed
Cause you don't glitter in their eyes
I don't wanna assume
But your body and attitude
Is making me feel like
I really have to

My value being estimated
By people with no credentials
They wanna see me fail
Cause they hate
That I am in front of them
They love to hear
When I slip
For them it's something pleasurable
Makes them feel better
Like they got the upper hand
I'm disposable
How can I propel
When i'm blocked from hitting goals
Hate to see when I excel
When I succeed feel it's wrong
You say I don't deserve a chance
And I will never feel that
I work for what I'm served
I can afford the purchase

Long days
And long nights
Yet you decide
To keep me on your mind
How's it really feel
To be that upset
Upset about my existence
And you can't stand that
I succeed and you're held back
You feel less
While I prevail
You know that
Is your own fault
You keep projecting
Making me your cause
I'm not your scapegoat

I don't wanna be a trophy
I don't wanna be viewed as a fee
Make me feel golden
Me is what I'm offering
You sell me anything
That'll make me rethink
You pray that I'm on the brink
Of self-destructing
I don't know why
You just can't believe in you
Rather see me low
So you overestimate you

My value being estimated
By people with no credentials
They wanna see me fail
Cause they hate
That I am in front of them
They love to hear
When I slip
For them it's something pleasurable
Makes them feel better
Like they got the upper hand
I'm disposable
How can I propel
When I'm blocked from hitting goals
Hate to see when I excel
When I succeed feel it's wrong
You say I don't deserve a chance
And I will never feel that
I work for what I'm served
I can afford the purchase

Long days
And long nights
Yet you decide
To keep me on your mind
How's it really feel
To be that upset
Upset about my existence
And you can't stand that
I succeed and
You're held back
You feel less
While I prevail
You know that
Is your own fault
You keep projecting
And making me your cause
I'm not your scapegoat
