you don’t feel me

I don’t need anything

I don’t need to elevate

I don’t elevate myself

Up like an elevator

Because of a relationship

You don’t feel me

Yea, don’t

I’m

Done

With

The world

The world already been done with me

Long time ago.

I’m my own music

My own temperament

I feel my cold

I feel my beats

Yea, don’t feel me

I feel you,

I call you baby

But I ain’t yours

You toss me away,

You tossed me away long ago,

A million years ago

When the earth swelled out and opened.

I got swallowed up once and you could’ve spent it

On my validated star space,

Instead, I got wiped out,

Swept away

But now I validate myself,

I don’t appreciate your game.
