Why fluent your affluence at me
Do you wish it to impress me
Do you perceive it will
Do you think me that shallow
Or are trying to make me
Jealous about all you have
Because you know I have nothing
And you want me to see what I lack
But I have a family and we share love
And though we barely have enough
We make do and are happy
So flaunting your wealth in front of me
Means very little but it can irk me
That you can act with such insensitivity
Rubbing my nose in all you’ve accrued is just cruel
And knowing that I would never do that to you
Makes me in the end a better person than you.
