Never win first place, I dont support the team
I cant take direction, and my socks are never
clean
Teachers dated me, my parents hated me
I was always in a fight cuz I cant do nothin
right
Everyday I fight a war against the mirror
I cant take the person starin back at me
Im a hazard to myself
Dont let me get me
Im my own worst enemy
Its bad when you annoy yourself
So irritating
Dont wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else"
