I win

To every ache I've ever known -
And every tear my cheeks have shown -
To every lie I've thought was truth -
Now you all must stand alone.

For each and every evil eye -
For all the whispers, gossip, jokes -
Each last attempt to hold me down -
I hope you all enjoyed your pokes.

To every pointed finger seen -
And laughter when I could not stand
May jealousy now paint you green
As you are lifted by my hand

I do not wish those pains on you
I will not punish you within
Success itself, reward enough
Haa! You've lost ! And now I win!

I've overcome the struggles and
I'm finally content
Upon your loss, therefore I won,
and all my troubles went!
