A War Reprised

My foe is back Eight years later Still tracking footprints Still throwing shade Chief hater Slinging grenades in stacks Click boom Lurking like a swamp gator Cold blooded No tact No soul Just impact Takeover in phases Careers torched Dreams scorched You hateful witch Buy Destruct Sell Demonic greed On a platinum shelf You torch what you touch Then grin to yourself You will never understand Here take this It’s useless Like rebellion in a Fortune 500 Fruitless Like screaming in a soundproof room Mute this But I can't I won’t So I do this Sick with the heat of it Haunted by the truth of it Dragging myself Down this road Again No map No justice No righteousness
