Putting others down is not empowering If it makes you feel better about yourself, go ahead Look in the mirror at your flat nose and big ego and try to tell me your perfect Try to tell me you're not a narcissist Try to tell me you're better than me When your living up to others expectations While I do not compare myself to you You think being brutally honest is a good quality When I'd rather be compassionate and sensitive I don't live a double life What you see is what you get But even with your cruel words that you debase me with I still have the courage to take it in I don't get mad or get even I wait for your rain cloud to appear And when it does I will smile Because karma is only a ***** if you are
