i work

i get no respect

sometimes i get no work done

but i still finish my job

by the end of every week

but i still feel weak

from time to time

i'm so fucking lazy

i'm pathetic slime

but i'm poetic at times

and i'm decent with the rhymes

i wish i could sleep

but i care too much about what people think

and i care too much about needing to eat

and i care too much about having a future that's neat

and i care too much about not living on the street

i get disrespected by so many that i meet

that's why i spend so much time staring at my feet

people say stand up for yourself

but nobody gives me a chance to even be myself

i can't say a word without being cut off

and they think i'm trying to get attention anytime i sneeze or cough

i do alot more then most people do

and i get payed alot less then most of them do

and still all they do

is talk about what i supposedly can't do

even though i do those things every week

and i still feel a little weak

and they tell me from time to time

that i've exceeded their expectations

and they've been pleasantly surprised

then they go and doubt me again

they take all that is true, and turn it into a pack of lies

that's the pain you see when you look at my eyes

don't tell me that it's not that bad

you've never experienced what I have

and i'm not overreacting

i've spent my whole life retracting

and i've about had it

it's a good thing i was raised with good habits

or you might all be dead

or i might be the one who treated you like a dickhead
