Grudge

Walkin' around with a grudge Sportin' a full costume of an ATTITUDE Being mad   Seein' mad       Stayin' mad But never glad Not even to wish for what you had Hmmm, how sad To be angry all the time       Frownin' all the time             Mopin' all the time Snappin' at any n' everyone Carryin' evil on ya' shoulders that way a ton I certainly don't want none The devil won't keep me busy Damn, I reckon it's better you...than me Don't anything make you smile? Make you jump up for joy Like a lil' girl or boy Or even happy that you've been livin' for a while What you so angry for?       Someone steal your car?             Beat down your door?                 Or make you get on your hands                   n' knees with ya' head to the floor? Puh-lease.... It can't be that bad For you to stay constantly mad I ain't sorry But, I do apologize And I don't mean to categorize But you need to open your eyes There's people alot worse off than you Some have no home       Many have no food         Alot have no clothes n' shoes too But you... You have the nerve to be bitter! N' the blessings you recieve You obviously don't consider Cause' if you did You wouldn't be that way Until you choose to change your ATTITUDE That's the way you'll stay So if you choose to remain ungrateful N' show no love Your demeanor will always be hateful While you walkin' 'round holdin' that grudge Written March 8th, 2002 © on Mar 08 2002 09:15 AM PST   0 • 1
