Poem
Cage the Beast by Kenny Davis

Lord, in Jesus’ name
Please cage the beast
Causing all of my heartache
And pain to cease

Please bind these feelings
Locked in a cage
In hopes on concealing
This fiery rage

What are these many factors
Which torture me so
Endlessly causing the feeling
Of despair to grow

The fear of what should happen
If it is to ever to be unleashed
Feeling the wrath and scorn
Of soul of this tormented beast

I feel it lying
Hidden beneath the skin
Lord, keep this monster
Buried deep within

Itching to get out
And let loose its pain
Heart full of vengeance
Soul of distain

Hatred and scorn rules
Where this beast currently dwells
Hoping to get out so that it may
One day on world unleash its hell

What might have been done
Or so horribly said
For this untamed beast to claim
To hear voices in its head

Lord, all these people
Are driving me insane
Can’t avoid these ruthless images
From piercing my brain
What’s to hold me back
From my potential insanity
What’s to hold me back
My plague upon humanity

What’s to hold me back
From my destructive path
Who’s to stop me
Shall the world feel my wrath

It’s often hard to measure the depth
Of the pain of one’s heart
Exactly how much it’s been battered
Bruised, broken, or terribly scarred

It’s complicated to determine
The darkness of one’s soul
The depth of its anguish
Of its internal black hole

What shall hold the beast back
If the world pushes me too far
What’s to hold it back
If it’s free of those cage bars

Lord, what am I to do
With this agony inside
While these animalistic intentions
Darken the depths of my mind

I can only take, but only so much
I can only hold it in for so long
But to provoke this beast
Is terribly wrong

So Lord I ask you, I beg you
To continue to cage this rabid beast
In hopes that the world might continue
To live on in peace
