Empathy In Exhaustion

All these years, I've been drowning in self-neglect
It's about time I self-reflect
All these years, I've been exhausted from all the empathy I've been carrying, making me forget who I am
Showing empathy feels like a scam

Now I find it difficult to open up my heart

When I do, I get ridiculed and then ripped apart
Since when did these motherfuckers consider bullying art
This is why I'm becoming more selective
Trust is a rarity but it can be defective

All this empathy is making me exhausted
These motherfuckers shouldn't be trusted
Chew me up then spit me out
Leading me to self-doubt

Don't ask me why I'm heartless
Expressing empathy has led me to emptiness
Danger is creeping in my chest
Expressing empathy has led me to fatigue, my feelings remained unaddressed 

In Voids We Trust

 Yeah I know that the motto is In Paws We Trust
But this is all about black cats, loving them is a must
They love to hypnotise us with their moonlit eyes
Fall asleep next to us until the sunrise

Black cats are indeed a sign of good luck
Those who think they're bad luck, they suck
How can you hate on them sweet little voids
They're better therapists than steroids

Black cats are so photogenic
Their furs are soft, and the sound of their purrs is so therapeutic 
Squidgy little toe beans
They love to eat their veggies, especially their greens

I love waking up to the sweet sound of their meows, they are so cute
It'd be cute if they can learn how to salute
They know how to pose for the camera
Did you know, the Italian word for panther is Pantera
Black cats are so metal
They're all silky as a rose petal
But they're skilful ninjas
And they're just as cool as gingers
Mind you, they both have souls
Don't listen to them trolls

In voids we trust is the motto
I'd buy a mansion with loads of cats if I ever win the lotto 

A Fetish For Misery

"What would people say?" Fuck them
I don't care what animosity they have towards me, it sounds like a them problem
More like they have a fetish for misery
I ain't talking about a Stephen King story

"Shame you don't..." Shhh don't even think about trying to change my mind
Take your negativity and stick it where the sun doesn't shine
"You look like..." Shhh, you must be blind
Yet you're the one that is contradicting yourself with shit like "be kind" and "Praise the Lord" in your bio
Telling me to unalive myself for being busty, that's a no-no

Everybody seems to have a fetish for misery
Haven't you fuckers got any decency

Don't like the way I dress?
That's none of my business
If you badly want to watch me fail
Then why on earth are you on my tail?

Here we go again with the guilt trip
You're asking for a fat lip
Here's a phase I recommend that you don't skip

That's right, it's called stay in your fucking lane
I ain't got time to be listening to the shit that shits out of your brain 

Jealousy is an ugly disease, get well soon mate
Darling, go buy yourself a personality
Aww thank you, I appreciate the hate
Hope you recover from your fetish for misery

Kiss kiss, you won't be missed
You can't see me, I'm hiding in the mist

The CEO of MEGA

 I'm gonna keep dressing like it's Halloween every damn day
Pass me a white mocha or a vanilla latte
That's right, I'm the CEO of making emo great again, I'm a motherfucking queen
Going to shows is my scene

Rawr, I'm a dinosaur
No wait, I'm a kitty cat
It's acceptable to girly dance to metalcore
Headbanging to A7X (Avenged Sevenfold), all hail the Deathbat
I'm running out of black eyeliner and nail varnish, I need more

That's right, I'm the CEO of making emo great again
I will remain undefeated
I won't let anyone take over my reign
I won't obey, I'm a mother fucking rebel
I'm a badass witch. Do you want me to read you a spell?

I'm never too old to mosh
Bunny boilers hating for no reason, oh my gosh
I'll bet they'll get their arse whooped in the moshpit
It's not my problem that your man thinks I'm fit
If this stanza bothers you, that's not my problem
Everyone knows you're probably cheating, such a scum
It's funny how I got bullied for my style
Now all of a sudden, motherfuckers wanna be me so badly, that ain't gonna last for a while

Black cats are metal as fuck
Their beauty and personality bring good luck
Donnie's favourite band is whatever band I like, especially Paleface Swiss
That's my boy, he gets another forehead kiss

No Mum, it's still not a phase
Make Emo Great Again is the catchphrase 

Build-A-Billionaire

 So, I wrote a two-part poem called Build-A-Bitch
So, now we're calling out those who get off to the rich
Now you got bitches and their Disney Princess Syndrome, looking for a fella who is in finance, trust fund, 6'5, blue eyes
Yet they're adding filters in their photos, exposing their own lies

Wake up, this ain't build-a-billionaire
That's like bragging about having an affair
What happened to look for character & value
There's different eye colours out there that ain't blue
That's like wanting to be with a chick that is built like MewTwo

Back off, sugar daddy
I'm in my bad girl era but I ain't a baddie
I don't want you and your money, I ain't interested in the old meat
I ain't interested in shopping at the high street
Please, I don't want to get diabetes
I also ain't interested in catching genital herpes
Don't expect me to apologise for my vulgarity
You want equality, you got equality

Wake up, this ain't build-a-billionaire
Meeting up for coffee or bubble tea is better than going to a fancy restaurant in Leicester Square
Marrying a fella from Dubai ain't a flex
I wouldn't be surprised if your marriage ended because he's probs obsessed with his ex

MEGA (Make Emo Great Again)

 Along time ago
I sat in my room, rocking out to Guitar Hero
It has been an infinite escape from the C-PTSD factory
A place that screams misery loves company
And that is school
Where the idiots tried to take me for a fool
Thank fuck, I'm out of that shithole
One time, I discovered Kohl

So, let's make emo great again
Headbanging to A Day To Remember while writing poems and wearing black eyeliner, that's my jam
"You can't sit with us!" I don't want to, you can't follow me on Instagram
"You'll grow out of this emo shit!" That's a lie
The emo in me will never die
It was never a phase
Make my way to Sainsbury's to get myself a Kerrang mag on Wednesdays

Going to see my favourite band live is more my scene
I'm still that emo cat queen
Since my quads got bigger, I switched from black skinnies to black leggings
I ain't got time for South Asian weddings

Let's make emo great again
Let's go shopping in Camden
Yay! I see Pokémon
Gotta get them all before they're gone
Ooh this fit is cute and it's in black
I hear Teenage Dirtbag playing through the speakers, throwback

It's not a phase, mum
I bought all the clothes and eyeliner with my income
So, it's a lifestyle
Quoting lyrics on my MySpace profile
Girly dancing to Avenged Sevenfold, that's valid
More valid than your broken ballad

I'm still making emo great again
Got a paper and a pen?
Coming right back like a boomerang
You tell them, Smash Into Pieces
Gotta meet up with my cat gang
I'm hungry, I'm gonna have some Reese's

MEGA!
Another way of shouting SEGA!

Pressure Academy

 Welcome to Pressure Academy
Where everyone's threatened by individuality
Everywhere it seems that high school never ends
Especially when you're surrounded by them, fake arse friends

All these years, I've been burning out
Good looks, good grades that's all they fucking cared about
Makes no sense that I got punished for being a Pokémon fan
Yet I get called boring for having self-respect because I ain't stealing someone's man

Parents should be proud that I catch Pokémon, not STD's
Yet they cared too much about GCSEs
These petty princesses are sporting that mean-girl energy
That shit ain't pretty
Just because I refuse to wear sarees and salwar kameez
They reek of jealousy, a dangerous disease

Spare me them Totodile tears
When you've all been ostracising me for years
All you do is pick & choose
Don't believe the truth, you lose

Hey you!
Don't tell me what to do
Just because you remember me from the same school
I remember the shit you did, they weren't cool
All these years, my soul was filled with guilt and shame
Leave me alone, I don't want to know your name

Fuck school uniform
I don't wanna conform
When I was forced to wear a skirt
I got accused of being a flirt
How I dress
Doesn't scream yes
No, I didn't ask
To wear this mask
Don't confuse my safety for selfishness
While you're mistaking assertiveness for aggressiveness

I don't miss Pressure Academy
They're responsible for the theft of my identity
I feel sanity
When I'm far away from the total depravity
