ain't no slave to you

just because you've made an assumption

and stormed off like you so often do

doesn't mean that another is responsible

to explain the circumstances to you

i am too old to be chasing misunderstandings

and too young to use up all my time

on little girls who can't get enough attention

or see the rhythms in my rhyme

and now i say in the truest way i can

i was the best and i was loyal until the end

but the end has come much earlier

so there's no need to try and make me bend

so say farewell or don't, if you like

i'm sure it will all be explained in the light

i have no catchy lines of parting

or thoughts that seeing will give you sight

if anything i hope that you learn your beauty

and that you stop denying yourself a chance

people are not basement punching bags

waiting for you to ask them to dance

and no, i'm not going to thank you

for all the wonderful times we shared

i am going to walk away quietly

and slowly forget all that was declared

some people are great at spitting insults

some people are great at being nice

but when they call you self-centered

they themselves have become the lice
