Toxic - Late night thoughts

One of those thoughts that hit you from nowhere and puts things a little more in perspective. *Toxic* I looked in the mirror the other day and I saw a man He looked a lot like me, And I swear he was fine, Gaddamn! But he spoke and acted different His words were hurtful He looked down on people, was insensitive and cunning too. That couldn’t be me I said. I am nice and thoughtful Or is that just an image in my head I know I shouldn’t have said those words to that waiter the other day. I know I should have held the elevator for that genitor at work today Should I have not insulted that random lady’s picture on Facebook Do you mean I shouldn’t have laughed at those disabled kids trying to do the legwork? But they had it coming didn’t they Why should I have to not be myself because they’d feel some type of way? I mean, it was funny wasn’t it? I have my freedom of speech don’t I? Am I now responsible for how they feel about what I say? *(Question)* *No you’re not.* *But if it was you, on the receiving end?* I looked in the mirror today and I saw a man He looked a lot like me, And I swear he was fine, Gaddamn! But he spoke and acted different His words were hurtful He looked down on people, was insensitive and conning too. That couldn’t be me I said. I am nice and thoughtful Or is that just an image in my head But it was me, I always saw what I wanted to see instead I had just seen a side of me that wasn’t so sleek. Look in the mirror today Look deep, You may see it too. You too might be toxic *Music track used in this is from https://www.fesliyanstudios.com*
