Fighting Fire
You can't fight fire with fire
Distinguishing these battles within the flames
Makes the dry accusations accompanied by
Cold blooded lies
Seemingly worth the time
The time I've spent on
Throwing matches like grenades
At the burning fire within you
Has me
Paralysed
Drowning me in every single false word spoken
Is tossing another log into embers riddled with bitterness
And distrust, and to think I
Trusted the
Ice cubes you've spewed into my flames
That had only made me grow more inflamed,
In a state of dismay
Heartless and empty were your pitiful, schrewed misconceptions
And every slight hint, a sly suggestion
To tear the floorboards from my serenities
Just to burn bridges with those I hold no grudges
How do you view my sparks as mere charcoal smudges?
Through those damned tear studded shackles you label as eyes
My power can tear up more than the misery after a tragedy
And as elegance of blues and whites blossom from this
"Weak and brittle core",
I may flaunt the rage caged developed just from mere days of your
Burning words, absurdly churning every essence of will power
I'dn't thought I was capable of before
And with every spore cracking out of my uncontrollable branches
Lord knows I will vengally dance on your ashes, and when we're through
And nothing is left of you but
" Weak and Brittle" remenences of what stories you're roots had presented
Which is nothing more than embers of hatred, you neglected
You're ability t see the genuinity of others kindness,
I will be fucking righteous!
Your stance was nothing more than a trance of
Wrongs dressed as rights,
And nights your lies glowed as the warmest, welcoming light
My dear, the wind is blowing.
Distinguishing that pathetic core
A top filthy ashes
Will be nothing more
Then fighting fire with fire,
Whilst the rain drains you of anything you once had been
My legacy will continue to roar
