Don’t Fuck with me, Now.

I don’t give a damn what you think of me.
You built me up, to burn me down; as I hit the
ground, you fan the flames.

I’m so fed up, but you don’t realize what you’ve
done to me now. I’m done pretending ignorance.
You’ve kept in the dark long enough.
I’d put you on a pedestal – looked up to you;
Trusted you, put my faith on something unknown.

But you fucked with me now; for better or worse you:
shoved, kicked, beat me, thinking that’ll stop me.
Look at me now, you a’int king; I tower over you.
Look at you now, cowering down on your knees.
Exactly, here I am taking a stand, can’t fuck with me.

I a’int putting up my gloves; nor am I out for the count.
So to all y’all Motherfuckers, you can drop dead.
Rest in Peace. As for me, won’t keep living this way,
looking in the mirror seeing who I used to be, facing my
demons.
Crying out “Starting today, I’m not backing down!”

Saw me as weakling, now whose burning down.
Like to give thanks to my Guardian Angels, who
saw me through. We may not have meet, but you
took my hand and helped me through this chaos.
