The Circumstances Within One's Control
He used beat me down so small
Everyday however, I choose not to brawl.
He used to say,
"I am Hurricain, you shall fear me everyday"
But now to this day, he looks so small
as I once plucked him with my awl.
He would see me in the halls
And my face would go as white as a dolls.
He would push me down
And laugh at me like I was a clown
He would take me to the toilet, and push my head down
As his ghouls laugh as I drown
He would move water and dirt
Just to burn me and force me to abort.
I melted away everyday until I learned,
No matter what, I would not burn.
I built myself up to the point of no destruction,
So that he could no longer cause any ruction.
I made my body so strong
That one day, I could smoke him like a bong.
As I got stronger and stronger
I lasted longer and longer.
Until the last day where I
For once was the one to make him cry.
You see, I put laid him no harm
Instead I made him look like a chicken on my farm.
I gave him no satisfaction
And I found my traction.
So from that day on
I stood like a king, sitting so brawn.
