Put away your measuring tape
Put away your yardstick
Put away your ruler
What's it to you how much I make?
What's it to you how much I've got?
If you must judge my life
If you need to compare it to your own
Judge me for my charity
Measure my compassion
Judge me for the times I paid it forward
Judge me for the times I've paid it back
Put away your measuring tape
Put away your discontentment
Stop being so damn resentful of everyone
Put away your measuring tape
It doesn't work on you either
Celebrate your own accomplishments
Be proud of all you have fulfilled
But be happy for the success of others
Put away your measuring tape and praise them
Put away your measuring tape
Or at least stop being such a prick about it
