The Beast Has Risen
You wanted the teeth
You wanted the claws
When I came close
You put me behind bars
I don’t know what you thought
I don’t know what you’re thinking
I don’t give a shit
What you’ve been drinking
This is the monster
Since the day she was born
The beast came alive
Like a perfect storm
You wanted me to kneel
You wanted me to beg
When I looked up
This is what you said
“I came to you
And gave you the words
Gave you the sweetness
And this shit occurs
Words
Words
Words
Upon words
I am so tired of
Hearing all of your words
The color is now
The red I adorn
From the top of my head
Since the day I was born
You see these eyes
Once pupils
Now slits
Coming for you
Cause I don’t bite my lips
You gave me your words
Now I give you my venom
Stay any longer
I’ll sink my fangs in
I am unapologetic.
In what I say
You can fuck off
Each and every day.
