Shorty

Why is validation from everyone else so important?
Maybe it's because I'm not strong enough to validate myself
Or is it really conceit?
No
It can't be
I don't seek validation because I think I deserve it
Still, I bet the half of you think I love myself more than I should
Maybe I come off as stick-up-the-ass, high and mighty
But I’m not
I’m really not
This isn’t to say that I could never be that way, though
If I could buy this kind of attitude,
I'd do it now
In a minute
Because let’s face it:
Who wouldn’t give away an organ, some years of his life, a first born even
In exchange for enough confidence to stand up tough and tall.
