The Real World

Slowly Transforming

You wanted the attention
You wanted to be looked up to
You wanted to become a role model
You wanted to rule your own crew.

You did it by hurting people
You did it the wrong way
You did it by manipulating them
And then treating them like a pile of hay.

You brought down their self esteem
You made them think they weren't good enough
You crowned yourself queen
While they had it rough.

You changed their hair makeup and clothes
You changed their attitude towards everyone
You changed their entire personality
But your glamour blinded them to see who they had become.

You made them your minions
Made them believe you were invincible
But little did you know
That without them you were the absolute minimal.

You ruled over their life
They never got a say
You gulped down their compliments as if it were water
But were too selfish to give them one anyway.

Oh that tiny part that was left of them
Imvisible, like a tarnished gem
I gotta hand it to you, princess
You've just created a carbon copy of yourself.
