DON’T TELL ME

Don’t tell me I’m not good enough

Cuz I’m better than you Don’t try to push me farther down

Than I already do

You know how to make me kneel

But I’m standing on my feet

Just because you make me small

Doesn’t mean you can’t be beat

You try to make me feel ugly

Because all the girls want you

But I’m a better person

And those girls soon find it out too

Your opinion meant so much to me

And all you did was bring me down

You never once told me you were proud

You never made a sound

You try to make me feel worthless

Like I’ll never accomplish a thing

But I’m already on my way there

And your still straggling

You’ve got so many more friends

But they’d rat on you in a flash

My friends treat me with respect

Yours just steal your cash

You try and say you’re smarter

Just because I don’t get straight A’s

So why am I getting the awards

For volunteering my free days?

You try and make me feel sad

You know which buttons to press

But you can say what you will

I’ll always be the best

Just because you hate yourself

Don’t make me the same

I never did anything to you

But love you without shame

Do you feel great when you push me down

Do you like to see me frown?

Does it make you feel strong?

I know you’re just weak

I’m not sure why I let you get to me

How can you put me down

I could put you down too

How can you make me cry

I’d never do that to you

So don’t tell me thing

Because I’m not
