buried

by mjsayshey

In the past People used my past to control me But I’m past that so I smack back What they told me. Try to hold me back But you can’t tack a label On a fable, I’m a legend Even if you say I’m unstable. If in competition, they done lost to me Take a shot at me, you intelligence apostasy. Mockingly, they call me an oddity Probably a product of my comedy Step back, laugh, then step on me, See, free entertainment for the public glee! “Gee, why the negativity?” they say to me But I am not listening, glistening In my eyes, but it ain’t tears Fears, I forgot ‘em, buried ‘em last year.

Originally a rap, but poetic enough to put on here
