"When doubting Thomases doubt you, dismiss them with a laugh!" - self quote
Doubt me, doubting Thomas, and I'll have so much fun
reminding you just what a grave mistake you've made.
Trust me, you'll see the light when it's all said and done.
You've taken the wrong bull by the horns I'm afraid.
Underestimate me, go ahead if you dare;
just know that you'd awaken a sleeping giant.
Put limitations on me and see if I care!
You'll never weaken my resolve; I'm defiant.
Take me for a fool, it's guaranteed to backfire.
Don't let me stop you; I'd like to see you try me.
Be food to my spirit and fuel to my fire.
I'm a supernova, baby! Try me, feel free!
Disregard and dismiss me at your own peril.
Tell the world I can't hack it just to make me laugh!
I'll show you what I'm made of lock, stock, and barrel.
I'll prove you wrong; I'm a powerhouse and a half.
Doubt me, doubting Thomas, and I'll have so much fun
Underestimate me, go ahead if you dare;
Take me for a fool, it's guaranteed to backfire.
Disregard and dismiss me at your own peril.
