lyrics

You pride yourself on being rather shrewd

And yet you never show me gratitude

I'm sick and tired of playing your dumb game

I'm hurt and you're the one to blame


What's up, you dumb fucking bitch of a mare

You think you've always shown me all this tender love and care?

All these years I've been your little fuckin' whipping boy

Always treated me like I was a mother fuckin' toy

Got your nose buried in a book, status quo

Only break I get, when you're not hurtin' a bro

Pullin' me off the bookshelves, that wasn't fuckin' smart

Somethin's real damn wrong if my best friend is Nurse Redheart



You pride yourself on being rather shrewd

More like rude!

And yet you never show me gratitude

How about a thank you?

I'm sick and tired of playing your dumb game

So fuckin’ lame

I'm hurt and you're the one to blame

You’re the one to blame!



I just wanna will it away

Get away, get away!

But even now, you taunt me still

So much pain, and only one mare to blame

You pretend to think it's okay

Not okay, not okay!

That I'm the one that holds your quill


I help you all my life, and I never get repaid

But when you hurtin me, your eyes are hard like jade

Unappreciated, I'm thinkin' of places to be

Little bitch Owlowiscious got nothin' on me

First chance you get, what, I'm getting replaced?

I wanna get the hell outta here, and make great haste

Don't like it bitch, you shoulda thought about it quicker

All the love I ever had for you? Gone in a flicker




I hope when you think about the things you say

I'm gonna go away!

That you know you need me; I don't need you

Nevermore, not anymore

And you knew not to shoot your messenger

Ya never were a listener

(Well, if you didn't, then now you do)


I just wanna will it away

Get away, get away!

But even now, you taunt me still

So much pain, and only one mare to blame

You pretend to think it's okay

Not okay, not okay!

That I'm the one that holds your quill


I'm wishin' and I'm willin' and I'm gettin' away!

Killin' the friendship, I'mma find my own way

I'm on my own now, cut the fuckin' cord now

I don't need you anymore, so I'll see ya bitch, ciao!



Gotta be leavin' today, and I'mma never lookin' back

Settin' fire to the past, I'm gonna be leadin' my own pack

Stealin' away in the night, I'm leavin' nothing to find

Fillin' the hole in my heart, gonna be with my own kind

I'm the king, I'm the boss of my own life now

At my knees, all of the crowds are gonna bow

Without you, I got the entire world ahead of me

This baby dragon's gonna be the best he can be
