You Take Everything, I'll Take the Rest

All these dui's and drugs
And ankle bracelets that say I can't
And won't; by law I couldn't anyway
And how are we to see what got you where you are?
There are better people than you
Little celebrity girls.
People that deserve to have the luxuries
You take, and take, and take for granted.
Let me stand in line for the right
To just grab you and shake you, and make you see
That what you have, is more than me
And yet.
And yet.
I wouldn't trade all you have
For the person I am.  
You appreciate nothing, and never will
And all the bags, and shoes and clothes and bling
Make me realize that I...
Have everything.
