Bitter

But Sometimes Sweet

I'm bitter

but better

A no quitter

Go getter

Right down to the letter

Go on, call my bluff

I chitter

On twitter

A last minute

Pinch hitter

A good vibe emitter

When things get too rough

I sputter

And spitter

Itchy finger

On the trigger

A protective lil sister

Won’t put up with your guff

Finishing bigger

An under dog winner

Sometimes bitter

Tastes sweeter

And my best is enough

So if you ever wonder

If I've got your number

keep one eye open in slumber

I could be gunning for you

Cuz I am not like the others

not a chump, mother f*#ker

I'll call your bluff, sucker

I'm ten toes deep in for you
