WHY DO YOU ENVY ME


Written at 16 years old

The envy boiled through them
Steam escaping in and out of them like ghost fumes
I didn't expect any of this
I was huge and just in college to learn
I didn't want any of this
I covered my long ebony kinda streaked in brown hair
Thick and luscious which i brushed in the bathroom which you over saw
Envy thickened more than my locks
Then you envy the eye lashes that flick up without an eyelash curler
God made me this way and if I'm beautiful i thank my Lord
You're also beautiful so give it a rest
If the guys like my clothes i don't know i cover my whole body
I'm modest and unique
No need to envy who i am
My heart is pure and clean
I'd rather have the right friends
You dream of them all wanting me and you get even more jealous than ever
You actually scaring me
Envy aint pretty and you can be better without all this jealousy
Its a disease that will keep on spreading unless you be happy with who you are
Then if you are you'll walk with a chin up and a smile that lights the world
Anyways why are looks the only thing on people's minds as i seem to see
Its making me sick that sometimes my good heart goes all to waste
At least compared to you i know who my real friends are so the better man walks with a smile on his face all the time
Or is it my personality, but remember what i said the better man always lights the world with his smile
So maybe if you don't like yourself no more you can change
You can who said that you can't
You should change for better and never for worse
