Act mean, I don’t care
Act snotty, I don’t care
You’re who you are
Selfish, arrogant, and mean
Want something
Then you act polite
Sweet comments and smiles
But I don’t know
How long it will last
Maybe
Until I tell you something
Maybe
Forever
Maybe
Never
But don’t worry
I’ll be nice
Always nice
No matter what you do
I won’t change
Because
This is who I am.
