Dwindling Fan Base (Growing Enemies)

How can you look at yourself in the mirror

And say you’re beautiful?

When all you do is ***** and moan,

Mock the “ugly?”

How can you look at yourself in the mirror

And say you’re beautiful

Is this honestly what you see?

 

Be honest with yourself now

What is there to gain

In bringing us down?

I may be ugly

But I sure as hell ain’t joining you

If that’s how beauty is defined

Think of all you say…

Now all you do.

Do you really think you’re better?

 

Your fan base is dwindling

And your enemies growing

I may be ugly, but I sure as hell ain’t joining you

If that’s how beauty is defined

 

Be honest with yourself

Do you like what you see

When you look in the mirror?

Notes

This poem is pretty much about bullies or people that just think they're better than everyone else and how typically, people talk down upon others because they're insecure about themselves.
