Let it Begin in Earnest  

 
Standing on the edge a precipice
Don't be such a pessimist
Footsure be an optimist
Think like a Buddhist
It doesn't have to be the bleakest
No need to be an alarmist
You chose to be balmiest
The brattiest, the bitterest
You howl like a dogmatist
Your skies are always the duskiest
You’re a masochist the sloppiest
As a thinker the laziest
A melodramtist and isolationist
A liar and revisionist
I wish there was a word cowardist
Facing the long drop, you won’t be the jumpiest
An extortionist, a narcissist
A racist and apologist
Despite pretending to be the godliest
However, in truth, you are sulkiest
The sleaziest, slouchiest, punchiest
Mouthiest, nippiest, gimpiest,
Ghastliest, fattest, gassiest,
Filthiest, fantasist, Narcissist
You just won't dive take a chance
You are what you are as described
Dishonesties
 
I, on the other hand, am the ablest,
Baldest, bluntest, coolest, dearest,
Earnest, finest, greatest, modest,
Nicest, purist, sharpest, sweetest
Straightest, strongest, toughest,
Warmest, wisest, activist, bubbliest,
Cheekiest, feistiest, grittiest, humanist.
Humorist, kindest, mightiest, nuttiest,
Noblest, non-sexist, moralist, perkiest
Definitely not a fuckin pacifist, a pugilist,
When pushed, triggers pulled the angriest
Spunkiest, when need be a terrorist
Trustiest friendliest, loyalist, securest
Good behaviourist, expressionist
Free speech evangelist, idealist
Protagonist, rationalist, revivalist,
Survivalist, conversationalist,  
Introgtationest, sentimentalist
Revolutionist, experimentalist
Individualist, professionalst
 
The bravest  
The boldest
Always honest
We should both bravely step off
However, you won’t, you’re too scared
I am willing to be sacrificial
I will plum the depths
The path you fear to tread
I am a becoming
I will rise and grind
Like a phoenix
Moreover, destruction will follow
A cabal ended
