Fight Or Flight

I see people trying and failing 
screaming and Flailing
Crying and Wailing
When I fly

They try and try
When I try I fly
I succeed and proceed 
to leave a venom ridden city
full of pity
full of crime
its now my time to rise

I rise out of ash in a flash
for I am fast I outlast
to the final step
to that last breath
to the end
long Alliances bend

Now im In Fight
From day till night
out of darkness my light
shines bright

I blind and paralyze
to seep through your eyes 
to stop more lies from spreading
'Cause Even the seemingly never ending
must cease
