Name
Sly and evil,
I'll cause you pain,
Your reputation I will stain.
Slowly building you up,
Then breaking you down,
You're going nowhere in this town.
I'll be the light,
In the dead of night,
The dark in the life of day.
I'll be the ice,
I'll be the fire,
I'll be the essence of all desire.
I'll be your friendly enemy,
An amulet and a demon you'll see.
I can break your will to live,
Or bring you glorious fame,
But trust me when I tell you that
you won't forget my name.
