Ego and Me

I think I fucking need some couples therapy,
I don't know why were together, my ego and me.
Who said it was cool to live with me rent free?
You're not needed anymore, it's time for you to leave.  
You've done enough damage to my evolution.
I'm done with your unsolicited persecution.
I want a divorce, a standard dissolution.
We can't stay together, there is no solution.
And I won't need closure.
I won't need your consent.
You won't get exposure.
Your presence is irrelevant.
I've uncovered you and gave you identity
Your only goal is to stir up pain and misery.
What do you want from me? Complacency?
Why confuse me with intentional ambiguity?
You have always been my antagonist.
I see you through your delusional mist.
You and the new me cannot coexist.
With you I feel cuffed at my wrists.
I clinch my teeth and ball my fists, 
When your poisonous suggestions persist.
I'll make you quit, I'll force a cease and desist.
I'll put an end to your mental apocalypse.
I've figured you out, I'm better at this.
I'm employing emotions like an alchemist.
You helped me understand my narcissist.
Leaving you behind will be the catalyst, 
To a new composition of my self awareness.
Is it possible you and I could be infinite?
I'm exhausted by the thoughts you twist.
I'm removing your name from my guest list.
Take a long walk off a short bridge. I insist.
Recognition's the first step to letting you go.
I'm aware that you're there, just so you know.
Setting the bar high so I can keep you below.
Evolving at a pace you can't keep, you're too slow.
I know there's nothing wrong with me,
It's just a figment of my personality,
Knowing and accepting it will always be,
An endless war between my ego and me.
