Help Yourself, Fucker!
I got me a megaphone
have the haters saying
oh hell no!
I'm not mad
for every opinion
there's an asshole behind them
but I know what I wouldn't do
and that's wasting time
life's too short for that
one day I'll be buried like everyone
when I am
I want to be know for
being the realist mother fucker
I sing
I write
I party all fucking night
I run
I fall
still all I really want Is love
hate is a strong feeling
sorry if I bring that out of anybody
that shit can be like bars
imprisoning like fort knox
I should know
I been there more than a few times
but I'm just tired of that feeling
caring about what others think
it's no way to go about your day
just know I don't take shit lying down
here today to say
when you're spitting your venom at me
know that I'm boa constrictor
strangling you with every word thrown
I live
I learn
I care
but never for a hater
I'm me
I'm here
not trying to be anyone else
I crual up to my lover at night
wondering if I should talk about this
but it's all so pointless
all I know is I have to keep me happy
can't please everybody
and I'm not even trying
sure, I can be an ass
but don't come at me looking for a fight
because I'm just here doing my own thing
so with all due respect
if you're coming at my door with your shit
turn yourself around
and walk right the fuck out
have the haters saying
oh hell no!
I'm not mad
for every opinion
there's an asshole behind them

Actually the title is directed at me. Often when people start trouble with me I think maybe someone will care or have my back. This poem is to remind me that I got to stick up for myself. There's often consequences for standing up for yourself, but I can't be another person that just takes it. I want to be a better person than that. Thanks very much for your comment 😁

real talk straight up...nowadays its so hard to believe anyone got your back i have learn early on in life you better have your own back, those do or die folks are a rare vision to see and just like you if you come at me wrong the gloves comes off, for if you can dish it out be prepare to stand your ground even if i cant get at you physcially i can sure mess you up mentally for words are like a double edge sword to me i will cut you deeper than deep...respect

Hmm. Well. Ones reaction is oft triggered by another’s course of action... 💡
Usually, we don’t even think to figure out how we may have contributed to a n emerging situation.
