A poem about rising above depression
I will not be swayed
Stay clear of my reach, it’s for your own good
Your words have fallen on deaf ears
I refuse your lies

The poison that drips from your lips will not taint my view
You can burn the truth all you want
I see clearly through smoke filled room
I won’t inhale the toxic fumes

If you want a fight, I’ll give you one
I’ll stand toe to toe with you
Ring the bell, I’m ready
I hope you brought your best

I may not look like much, but I’ve got more than you can handle
I’m the ice burg that brought down the Titanic
I’m the river that carved the Grand Canyon
I’m the punk ass mother fucker that is going to bring you to your knees

So buckle up bitch, it’s going to be a bumpy ride
I will drag your ass through the dirt
I will rip through your soulless heart with my words
And I will leave your rotting corpse in the street for all to see

I am stronger than you
I am me
