Role Of An Underdog

I’ve been underestimated since my youth;

Played the role of underdog like a pro regardless of the shit I’ve been through;

Wanted to give up a time or two;

As those around me pretended, setting me up to be ran through;

I’m not complaining at all I’m just trying to explain;

That I’ve been forced to endure days of never ending rain;

Persecuted as an innocent man and put on trial;

Found guilty of crimes I didn’t even do in my life;

Now that I’m made with my name in lights;

You want to be there for me as if you always were by my side;

And you get offended when I ignore you in plain sight;

Calling me arrogant, when I’m just paying you back for all those times;

You forced me to wipe away tears I never even caused myself to cry;

Where were you when I needed a friend just to talk;

Whenever I called you hit ignore;

When we met face to face you turned away as if I embarrassed you from the public point of view;

Now that I roll solo you want us to be cool;

As if nothing was wrong but that’s something I just can’t do;

I may be saved but I ain’t holy, that’s Jesus’s job not mine;

Even if I loose points in Heaven, I’ll take my chances until I reach the after-life;

When I had the chance to take revenge I refrained;

When I could have ended your life I turned the other way;

All I’m asking is stop trying to make up for past mistakes;

I don’t want your apology and I don’t care about what you have to say;

You see I was forced to play the role of underdog and I did it like a pro;

So if you want to be friends now, the answer is a hard no;

See you next life time, maybe God will have mercy on your soul cause I won’t;

I lift my middle finger and write you off as a thing of the past;

You thought you broke me, but you only strengthened my heart.
