Sycophants

I don't envy

Your situation

Your obligation

Trying not to choke as you say

Whatever you want Whatever you want Whatever you want

How does it feel to serve the ones who make you hate your life

While knowing deep down you've got no one to blame but you

Do you even know yourself anymore

Go 'head and sell your self respect

Let someone else reap what you've sown

But you're on your own

Give them a round of applause

Let them keep sinking their claws into your head

I guess your dignity is finally dead

Please remind me

What is it you do here

Exactly who are you again

Cause all I've heard so far is

Hey you're doing great champ, everybody loves you

You don't seem too useful

You're not

The least bit competent

But hey what do I know

You do you

I'm just a fly on the wall

Do you even know yourself anymore

Go 'head and sell your self respect

Let someone else reap what you've sown

But you're on your own

Give them a round of applause

Let them keep sinking their claws into your head

But I'd rather kill myself instead

You're not above reproach

You've become the thing you hate the most

Walking an endless road hoping your efforts show

So many years you've spent chasing a compliment

It matters not to them if you're alive or dead

No hope for hearts of men who care for none but them

Go 'head and sell your self respect

Let someone else reap what you've sown

But you're on your own

Give them a round of applause

Let them keep sinking their claws into your head

I guess your dignity is finally dead

Walking an endless road hoping your efforts show

So many years you've spent chasing a compliment

It matters not to them if you're alive or dead

The lives of men breed malcontent when wrought with sycophants
