Self-Seeking

I know this may sound just a little bit conceited
But I’m above you, no I can’t be defeated
 Put me on a pedestal cause I’m better than you
 With my back to the world there’s so much more I can do
 You wanna know what’s on my mind
Um, “I don’t care, Its all about me”
It may sound a bit self-seeking
Why should I be any other way “nobody cares about me”
Camouflaging my own well being
 I’m tired of being another charity case
 Being cordial got me nowhere
The old me is vanished
Having the “I don’t care attitude”
has positioned me in a different place
Gave me a new face
 Running at a different pace
I dare not to look back
Put on a new act
 To front for your enjoyment
Making it but faking it
Call me cocky, call me rude
But this is what you get
I dont need no friends
Being boxed is where I fit

o it was just a poem it didnt appy to me

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
