Words of GreatnessA Poem by Erica Ross
The Greatest, Magnificent.
The proof and you can't go through it. The truth and you can review it. The chosen one and I live like I'm used to it. When I'm eating, I'm feasting so I'm beasting Wipe my mouth for me; Royalty must stay clean. I do good, but I can do better And I'm full of riches but I can grow wealthier Cause my path is made of gold And you can see it dripping out of my soul Vultures trying to capture it in a bowl. They try to duplicate me and use it for bad But even when I struggle, my intentions are good, so I'm just not having that. Can you learn to love someone like me? Cause every now and then I figure this kind of lifestyle will be the death of me If it ain't the drugs, it's the thugs.. Hiding behind the mask of a friend But all the while plotting to take all that I have in the end. A paranoid mind inside of this girl. But I put on this facade like I can take on the world. On the inside all that I want is closure But I push you away before I even get to know ya. Cause eventually you all leave But I go on through life making you believe that you'll always stay with me. And anyone who survives the journey of loving me You deserve to be placed high upon this throne along with me Cause after all.. I Am the Greatest. Magnificent. The proof and you can't go through it The truth and you can review it The chosen one and I live cause I'm used to it. © 2013 Erica Ross |
