Trodden down like shit underfoot Be the downside to others upsides Last one to the table - just starve You'll get what you're given This is set in stone from the ivory towers Perception above all - When you're face down in the dirt Irreversibly persona non grata - A figure off ill distinction Persona non grata - The place for blame diversion No matter the plaudits I earn The whoring and scoring for points To strive to be superficial I'll live by your status This is knowing your place beneath the ivory towers Not a going concern But a lowly beast of burden
