Don't take for granted

Taking for Granted

Should I reflect?
Is it my fault?
Am I doing too much?
So much
So naturally
That you no longer notice
That you take me for granted

Perhaps I should reflect
Perhaps it is my fault
Perhaps I am doing too much
So much
So naturally
That you just accept as your right
That you forget that it is not so

I think I know
It is my fault
I am doing too much
So much of what I do
So very naturally
Is just being taken
For granted

You take me for granted
Am I being too nice
Am I being too amendable
Just because I am capable
Does not mean
You can take me for granted

Remember that
Just because I do
Everything
So much
So naturally
It is not your right to expect
It is not your right to take for granted

I owe you nothing
Just because I can
Just because I am capable
Just because I am me
It does not mean
You can take me for granted

You have no right
To take me for granted

Bear in mind
That I do what I do because
I can
Because I want to

Yes I can
Yes I am able to

But

Bear in mind
That I can

Stop

If I want to

And I will

If you carry on
To take me for granted

Because

Really

You have no right

To take me for granted.
