My Side of the Story Vol. I

9.) Light Switch

It truly is a shame. That I once wanted glory and fame. Come to find out everyone's in your business. And all of sudden everyone wants to be a witness. Everyone wants to know the truth. Covering their tracks while simultaneously being a "super sleuth". As if they're smart enough to know what that means. Tricking themselves into thinking that they're kings and queens. Running their mouths as if this was somehow my fault. As if every mistake somehow equated to assault. Knowing that my only option is to walk away. Knowing that there's no longer a reason for me to stay. I just gotta suck it up and swallow my pride. There's no way to win except to keep it all inside. To stay silent, like a feather in the breeze. Keep my anger in a box knowing it's a tight squeeze. But not that it matters, my heart and my brain. I guess to everyone else I'm the superhero that can withstand any kind of pain. But unfortunately I'm human and I actually feel all the time. I only know how to make sense of it all through my rhymes. But apparently you can't be poetic without being dramatic. Because apparently it's hard to find a relationship that will stick. So you see I wouldn't have to rhyme it all out. If the folks around me would just figure it out. And to think that I was once called family. Then disrespected and talked to so angrily. I did nothing but give right down to my last. So what made you think it was ok to put me on blast? But whatever I guess, not like it matters. You can do whatever you want, but when I fuck up "I've shown my true colours." So I'm to blame, since I'm a "dumb bitch". So you probably think I totally missed you switch. Just like a light, except when the light turns on again, I'll be nowhere in sight.
