It is but something

Better ignored than truly perceived

They’ll congratulate and applaud you

But if they were nestled in your shoes

They’d be anything but proud

It takes a lot to be truly proud

in one’s skin in front of the mirror

Be wary of the one’s who are comfortable

In their own skin

and would be anything but proud.
