Main Character Syndrome

Walking into the room, everybody’s perplexed

Who’s that handsome dude with an S on his chest?

Why did he say to get down and get some rest?

But he fell on his back; it’s the villain’s success.

It’s back to first person, Hi! It is I

Your saviour is here, no need to cry

Tell me your problems, and I’ll reply

No need for thanks, just share online.

It’s back to third person, OMG! He’s a hero

Look he defeated that monster on lane zero

His flexes and deadlifts were caught on B-roll

His stories are viral in the books that he wrote.

All I ever suffered from was a lack of ego

They don’t understand cause they’re below

My might exceeds the slides of their keynote

If you write good things, your life won’t be repoed.

Oh no! Speak softly or you’ll have him enraged

And then whine when he throws a table at your face

Keep a smile, and move on without turning astray

He’s a great man, no doubt, let him stay that way.

Is that a man in trouble? Let me go save him

Might as well stop these goons causing mayhem

The world is free under my rules and declarations

I’m blessed with these powers, bow down and amen.
