Anti-Hero
The world is cruel, harsh, and merciless all at once
Taking what it chooses and giving nothing in return
Frozen my young heart had to mature into
To survive all alone with no one else to guide
I'll be the anti-hero in your story
The one who seems to not even care
I'll get what is needed by whatever means necessary
Because justice does not come to those who wait
So hate me or love me, it matters not
When things need to be done, it's me they call
The privileged in society could never understand
What a life for someone like me is truly like
There's good underneath this porcelain skin
But on the surface, I'm everything to that you hate
Fierceness rivaled by none lies below an icy stare
The anti hero you need to save the day
