Entitlement

your sense of entitlement gives you the right
to treat everyone like shit in your life?
I am supposed to drop everything to do.
whatever it is you need for me to

              a sense of entitlement gives me the right
              to expect and demand things in this life
              drop what you're doing and do it now
              figure it out I dont care how


how high am I supposed to jump today
my guess is higher than yesterday
your lack of consideration kills me
along with your self centered way of thinking

              time to jump because I say
              I'll determine how high from day to day
              inconsiderate and only thinking of me
              learn to deal with it this is how it will be


as far as you doing whatever you want
it would be nice if you gave someone a thought
or at least listen when I try to explain
and not freak out when I happen to complain

              I'll do what I want whenever I want
              without ever giving it a second thought
              don't bother to question or ever complain
              because if you do there'll be hell to pay


all of the bitching and whining and carrying on
has been going on now for way too long
I have bitten my tongue and kept to myself
with a few exceptions when it couldn't be helped

              I'll bitch and whine and say what I will
              sit there in silence you know the drill
              bite your tongue and shut your mouth
              you know your voice doesn't have any clout


talking to you is a waste of my breath
you hear what you want and dismiss the rest
once you have something set in your mind
changing your view becomes a waste of my time

              nothing you say is important to me
              I will not listen to the words you speak
              I'll make up my mind and we'll leave it at that
              and completely dismiss the opinions you have

you know what is best I should listen to you
and try to conform to your point of view
so don't ever alter or change what you do
and don't give a shit when I'm talking to you

              I know what is best and soon you will too
              if you do not try to change what I do
              I'm set in my ways and I will not change
              no matter what you do or happen to say
