Dec 2016
have you ever seen
an army of armed men
go quiet?

there are no riots
that arise from thin air
and some things defy explanation
even if you were standing right there

so keep an open eye
and hang a closed fist
god preaches forgiveness,
but even he would condemn this

so go ahead,
bite the hand that feeds
throw off the shackles that keep
you living on your ******' knees

don't be scared because
you were meant to fly
pass judgement against those
who denied you the right to try

so take a sip for courage
and head out to bring your vengeance
if they are going to accuse you of violence
don't be afraid to act a menace.
