Word to the Wise Dear Bully
Hey you there come over here
There's something you need to hear
You're a bully there I said it
I just thought you should know
I'm not surprised that you feign offense
You're too high and mighty to admit it
I've seen you push people out of your way
I saw you step on people to get what you want
You can pamper yourself and wear the latest style
But honey you're ugly on the inside
And you can never hide that nor deny that
Whether you deny it or not makes no difference
The truth is still the truth whether you like it or not
I'm so glad I've finally said what's been on my mind
I've wanted to tell you since I first saw you
Who am I you ask well does it really matter
There's nothing you or your sidekick bullies can do to hurt me
Here's the thing I want to know what happened
Something terrible must've happened to make you like this
Evil isn't born but rather it's made
So why are you a mean girl and why are you a bully
Often people who hurt others are actually hurting themselves
If I can help you I will but I wanted you to know
The horrendous things you've done to everyone around you
Aren't going to disappear and people won't easily forgive
But I have faith that even the darkest of souls can find the light
When I called you over here it was on a whim
I didn't know exactly what I was going to say or how
But the words just tumbled out of their own accord
Miss Mean girl you are a bully
But just remember you don't have to stay one
I should know because I was once a mean girl and a bully too
Somehow I went from ruler of the school to drooler of the school.
I feel hard and I fell fast and I hit the bottom of the chain
To be honest I like it down here better
But I still miss the top and I hope that you will find a sweet spot in the middle
There's always going to be someone better than you or smarter than you
There's always going to be someone worse than you or less smart than you
But it's not your job to put people into categories
It's not your job to demean and torment
It's your job to be a person who everyone can love and who you can look at in the mirror and love
Some people are going to always hate
Some people are always going to love
Who are you going to be mean girl?
You can go back to school and stay a bully forever
Or you can ride the wave of growth and learning
You'll find one leads to loneliness and the other to friendships.
I hope that with my piece of wisdom I've kept you from making the same mistakes I did
Wake up mean girl cause it's now or never
Who you going to choose to be
