I Will Shut Your Mouth
The ball came for me
In the face of a stone
But at 8 yrs old
I had already gotten serious
The bullies laugh there brick trails to hell
I know because the fire breathes in me
Harbors me
feeds me
They still laughed
They don't even fathom the slipknots of my mind
But my brimstone making is complete
and believe it or not the world shapes you
The villian is life
And I have witnessed all of its fallacies
Now I have them surrounded by words
of stones
there's a sling in my hand
"You better not shout", I say.
"Because I will shut your mouth".
