Entangled

Caught in a net Like a spider sees the fly Caught in a net That entangles you When you lie Caught in a net Of your deceit and destruction Caught in a net Caused by your lies and corruption Who will hear you When you scream and shout All will close their eyes and ears Of this, there is no doubt. Most have had enough, Of your dictatorial ways It may seem tough But now it is your time to pay, Caught in a net A net of your own making Caught in a net That is weak and slowly breaking Eventually, the net will break, Because it can no longer hold The dead weight

You performed an achievement by breaking the web. You did well. Good to learn to escape other pitfalls.
