Take It As A Compliment
Take it as a compliment
A
When someone treats you like shit
It's got nothing to do with you
Everything to do with them
When someone tries to dim your light
They're threatened by how bright you shine
When someone's an evil bitch
Take it as a compliment
The woman who gaslights you
Spreading rumors that aren't true
Narcissists low self esteem
Teenagers jealousy
When you're on the receiving end
Of someones lack of confidence
Always remember this
Take it as a compliment
Chorus
Take it as a compliment
When someone treats you like shit
It's got nothing to do with you
Everything to do with them
When someone tries to dim your light
They're threatened by how bright you shine
When someone's an evil bitch
Take it as a compliment
When someone tries to bring you down
Steal your crown
Remember they're already far beneath you
Everyone who bullies you
Scares daggers through you
They simply wanna be just like you
Chorus
Take it as a compliment
When someone treats you like shit
It's got nothing to do with you
Everything to do with them
When someone tries to dim your light
They're threatened by how bright you shine
When someone's an evil bitch
Take it as a compliment
