People sometimes say I'm too much
So why do I always feel like I'm not enough?
A try hard
For always trying my best
People take my kindness for weakness
And mistake my respect for fear
They say I'm too loud when I'm angry
But when I'm soft They never hear
How do I live in this world full of sin
Where being a good person makes you a simp
I try to be a light in people presence,
Only to be diminished to the gift that keeps on giving
I wouldn't mind it
The work I put in,
I don't do it for the recognition or praise
If I did it would all just feel like a waste
But it feels like no one gives a fuck some days
I can't help but feel
I'm human how hard is it to say thanks?
Or try to reciprocate?
Or at the very least
Not respond to my love with hate?
