Weaponry

written by: OurSacredHonor

Pardon me while I load up the AK
Unload a round into my own foot in exactly the same way
As I did yesterday
Today's payday
Now it's time for me to pay
For the foolish games I played
I've weighed out my options
Laid out my path
But fate has turned its back on me
Now I face its wrath
I'm on my own now
No one to save me
And I don't know how
I can change me
I punish myself
And I hurt everyone else
In my path or reckless self-destruction
This internal combustion
Causes me to defuse
I can't go back, I need some time to refuel
And retool my articulate arsenal of word weapons
This rhyme regiment must've been heaven sent
Don't relent
Just reinvent
And put a dent in their armor
I never meant to tempt karma
But it seems to me
That destiny
Never liked me to begin with
So I'll just give this a little twist
I've got a nuclear bomb that attacks neural pathways
I misbehave and I ride the airwaves
Once I infect you
I can detect and dissect you
Then reject you
And once I have left you
A huddled mass on the floor
As I leave through the door
You won't know what hit you
My words just slit you
Right down the spine
Just in time
To control you and make you mine
