Why is it that when success comes
Your friends run?
Do they play dumb?
Where is their support?
Now they don’t say congratulations
They don’t know your dedication
My body fills up with sensations
Trying to understand their arrogations
But when you see them in person
They use you for their diversion
I just get so disappointed
Because all I want now is to be avoided
Their ego is up, so severe
How did I even get here
Will I get support from you?
All I get now is a déjà vu
I thought I was the friend they all liked
But I guess now I’m not their friend type
I wish it were all like it was before
Now, it doesn’t feel like home.
