Allow me to introduce myself
My name is Keith Edwards, but you can call me Red Arrow
I've come to tell you who I am and what I stand for
Used to live in the 100s now I live by the lakeshore
I used to think that acting was what I was made for
Until I got old…..
Got my first phone in 5th grade, found that writing was my calling, and I picked up
Wrote stories and poems until my notebooks filled up
Writing on the paper what came outta my dome
But that paper fueled the fire that burned down my home
Everything I'm about to tell you is the opposite of a lie
I woulda been dead in the flames if I didn't try
To go save my momma before we would die
We jumped out a window, you can still see the scars
From when we landed on the concrete, looking at the stars
But I'm getting ahead of myself, y'all don't wanna hear my life story
I'm here to tell you I like horror, especially when it's gory
I got a good life, but i gotta make adjustments
Nobody in this room tryna see me in INJUSTICE
Yes I play games, but I'm definitely not basic
I didn't grow up with Xbox, but it's better than PlayStation
I watch a lot of stand-up and I see myself on that stage
I see myself as a comedian at times
And I went through a phase where I used beats to write rhymes
I'm socially awkward, but a really awesome texter
If I ever get a girlfriend, I promise I'll respect her
I'm a romantic with no hope, that's too true
There's a lotta stuff about this that I'm new to
Thinking about this, there's not much more to say
I just want a girl I can call Ms. Arrow one day.
I'm nowhere near done
Who else likes the show where you keep your phasers on stun?
Thinking about my life or when it really begun
I can be serious like that but I choose to be fun
I collect a bunch of movies, in memory of my Godfather who drove the Pineapple Express
I really should give this a rest
But there's a few more things I wanna get off my chest
I'm the biggest comic book fan, and not just in size
I'm not really a daredevil, but I believe in ghosts who ride
Shazam is the magic word that lights my Lantern
But I'd rather finish this part and continue with my banter
Big head, same sized brain, and I use it
But my temper’s the one thing I can't get rid of if I lose it
I can manage my anger, but that's not the issue
Every time I watch the Fault in Our Stars or Everything Everything, ya boi need tissue
My room is a Paper Town
But I'll finish this part, because that's enough said
But no matter what hat I wear on my head
Or whatever way I lay in my bed
Until they declare me legally dead
I will always be the Arrow that is Red
