Nature of the Beast: : the Black Panther Speaks

As the only large cat with a voice I roar from within my solitude
 Prowling with swagga and a side of attitude
 My voice is wild game's command
 Order in the kingdom is my superior demand
 Backed clearly by my teeth and claws
 They call me Wisdom and I'm here to lay down the law
 I stalk the cantelope
 Terrorize the antelope
 "Why in the world..." you may ask
 Feeding my cubs is my task
 I roam from Argentina to the African Safari
 My name is bigger than the historical Atari 
 To mankind I am a beast 
 In my pack I am a leader at the very least
 Upon my hunters i seek revenge
 Upon these lands I shall avenge
 Less fortunate creatures line the shore of the creek
 Stir not as this black panther speaks
 For I am the most fierce of all
 Disobedience shall be their death call
