MY SUCCESS YOU HATE
You have seen me cry
Still you stand there and do nothing
You have seen me struggle
Struggle to lift myself off the ground
Seen me wallow in despair
Seen the pain written on my face
Seen me fight death
Trying to flee this place
Yet you are adamant to do nothing
You simply wait for me to rise
For me to fight my demise
And when I stand tall
Proclaiming victory in this battle
You circle like vultures
Waiting to feed
Yet you are blind when I bleed
Deaf when I am in need
What have I done to you?
Is this revenge for the hurt
I have caused you maybe
Is this simply you hating
That I am trying to succeed
Do you fear so much
That I will prosper
Do you wallow at the thought
Of seeing me victorious
Over my trails and tribulations
Why do you hate me so?
You have witnessed my struggle
And felt my pain, seen my tears
Witness my knees buckle
From the pressures of life
Yet I still have to endure
Your constant chastising
Are you amused
When you see me fall
Do you derive pleasure
In seeing me on the ground
Defeated, lifeless and dying
Answer me
To stop these questions
That fill my mind
Put your pride aside
And open your mouth
And answer me this
Do you hate seeing me succeed
