My home. My safe place! My sanctuary of peace and calm! Deaf as I am,  I'm glad to have friends, When someone tries to steal from my mom! So we kept watch, over her van, Seeing the shadows of an unknown man, We're suited and booted; my knife And his gun, And we're ready to take him, Or force him to run! ********* all,  I have work In the morning, But I'll be ****** if we don't Send him a warning! Our shout brought him out, And we watched him run, To go steal elsewhere, But he'll have no fun! Not here; not now. At my grandmother's house. So I stand and I shake, Eyes wide open; awake, A knife at my side, with My rage as my guide. Hell no! Not here! Not now! My home.  My safe place, My sanctuary of calm! So I await the coming sunrise; No one ***** with my mom!

Suited and Booted
My home. My safe place! My sanctuary of peace and calm! Deaf as I am,  I'm glad to have friends, When someone tries to steal from my mom! So we kept watch, over her van, Seeing the shadows of an unknown man, We're suited and booted; my knife And his gun, And we're ready to take him, Or force him to run! ********* all,  I have work In the morning, But I'll be ****** if we don't Send him a warning! Our shout brought him out, And we watched him run, To go steal elsewhere, But he'll have no fun! Not here; not now. At my grandmother's house. So I stand and I shake, Eyes wide open; awake, A knife at my side, with My rage as my guide. Hell no! Not here! Not now! My home.  My safe place, My sanctuary of calm! So I await the coming sunrise; No one ***** with my mom!
Someone tried to steal my grandma's van tonight. So the adrenaline has overpowered my sleeping pills, and now I'm stuck with the urge to **** But that's fine by me; I'll stay awake! I work tomorrow, but I'll never be late.
