i just really don't get how i get so upset.
i dont understand why i cant stand up and say
i will not be overwhelmed, i will not be underappreciated.
i will not complete the set of bipolarity inside this grandstand
i see with clarity, i will not be shaded
from the statements of truth that i know are under
all the lies somewhere.

don't tread on me,
i won't be floor for your filth covered shit kickers
to walk all over, i'm not the underdog in this
dog eat dog world, this rat race of rabies infested rodents.
i'll not be bitten for poison to surge and flow
and take over my nervous system.
i can feel your hands snaking around my neck
and although that makes me nervous

i know something you don't. that i will keep on
