Lyrical Warfare

a pen full of ammo ready for a lyrical warfare
You'll be surprised by how many rhymes I store here
I refuse to be judged by anyone who isn't god or a man in a court chair
Killed my fear, and paid the price for my mistakes, I couldn't afford tears
Found my own way, because they would have left me distraught there
I began to value myself, and rely on none
Many shoulders in the world, but I won't cry on one 
Never been able to cry, I think my eyes are numb
They take shots behind your back, smile in your face and hide the gun
I fell in love with the rain, when I saw that Life wouldn't provide the sun
I created my own light
I refuse to dress it up, I've been naked my whole life
As soon as you have their number, they don't want to share the call
I protect myself, no one can share my wall
Am I unbearable because I bare it all?
Would you rather I cover and hide it?
So you can reveal my secrets and discover what's private?
My moment of clarity
Was realising telling it all, means there's no way for them to embarrass me
I'd rather speak my mind, I don't care for hidden words
even if they hate this poem, they'll love a different verse
I don't care about what Kardashian has given birth
I don't care about what celebrity relationships didn't work 
I hate all of that He-say She-say Gossip
I'd rather be deaf, so please change topic 
Don't believe a story you see on the news, they're always looking for what they can erase off it
I'll go for a ride on my unicorn and fight Zombies the day Donald Trump makes it a great office
I hope they all hate me for that line
If they do, it means I've got a free place inside of their mind
I'll put my pen down for now, but I have many more rhymes stored here
Just incase I need to write another lyrical warfare
