Knock it off

you have to stop blaming yourself
for everything that ever went wrong
because people will let you, and they will
never once tell you that it's not your fault
that kind of weight is too heavy to carry
without some help, the world is just
too selfish, they just can't help it
one damn bit, they help themselves
taking to everything and leave nothing
not even a crumb for a bum, greed is
evil and so are these people
who act like, they like you, but they
throw fancy parties and never invite you
but, you don't care, stop lying, yes you do
so you go buy a new outfit and some
shoes but they still talk about you
because your handbag is not a throwback
it's a trash bag with a price tag
a knockoff take that rock off
it's a CZ the diamonds so small
you can't see, that you're just
scratching up the mirror
you don't need these people
so, get rid of them, you call 
'em your friends... news flash
 the're not, so don't, try and
do not try to please them, it will only
appease their need to maliciously
tare you down, humiliate and
destroy you, I't's not allergies 
you've been crying, haven't you
you did your best, take those shoes
back to Payless and just, suck it up
I know, I'm not nice, neither are they,so
don't you think it's time to delete 
some folks from your path
