Isn't Worth It

I've been offered plenty of things

But none of which I desire

My independence rejects them

My pride won't accept

Face me like a real person

Don't hide behind material objects

False dreams and faulty promises

I want your truth not your money

Your honesty and your word holds more weight than gold

Besides the high life is played out

It gets tedious rather quickly

I need real love not another optical illusion

A diamond shines in the sun but so does aluminum foil

Is you strong and unbreakable or will you crumble

Your success is your success and vice versa

Unless we're building our success together I don't want any part of yours

I'm not for sale

I can't be bought or sold

I can't be auctioned off to the highest bidder

My ancestors went through that

So why would I even put myself through that trauma

So I can be owned like some slave

I'm good because I'm priceless not worthless
