I've met my own worst enemy, I've stared him in the eye, I've called him names, I've besmudged his character; destroyed his reputation. I've been consumed with hate for him, and all of that hate has been like burning coal. Burning coal that burns from within, the more I hate the more it burns. I burn with hate for my own worst enemy. However, now I stand alone, looking for terms of peace, it's time to call a truce. I stare my enemy in the eye, I smile and he smiles, from enemies to brothers in arms.

My Own Worst Enemy
I've met my own worst enemy, I've stared him in the eye, I've called him names, I've besmudged his character; destroyed his reputation. I've been consumed with hate for him, and all of that hate has been like burning coal. Burning coal that burns from within, the more I hate the more it burns. I burn with hate for my own worst enemy. However, now I stand alone, looking for terms of peace, it's time to call a truce. I stare my enemy in the eye, I smile and he smiles, from enemies to brothers in arms.
