I don't even need to prove
the sublime character of real nobility
the absolute straining of their collective sinews
has done it for me

I don't even need to prove my worth
when their fears, and inferiority complexes
cowardly somersault in hidden rages and cryptic proses
that has done it for me

I never have a desire to doubt myself
while they spew denunciations by the bucket loads
for the eager need to do this lies in recognition of my integrity
they have proven that to me

Don't even need to raise my expectations of them
for their shallow pettiness, uncouth anodyne envious stances
shows you can take them out of gutters but not gutters out of them
they have proven that comprehensively

In meritorious grace I treat all on merit
they have shown me ignorance lacks merit in all ways
that man in nature is but a beast untamed garnered with baseness
they have shown me pathetically pitiful people
I have learnt how to suffer fools gladly
they have done that to me

For that I am an even richer human
and I am humbly grateful........................
