Quiet Tongue

For it's good to be quiet
with no disposition.
But when enemies start to affront,
They kill in an old-fashioned.

How nonchalant this could be!
A cage where peril prevails.
I may be killed without clue
with no blood entails.

But when the force is too strong,
You'll be shut down for good.
That's how they become undisputed,
They just hide in the woods.

You need to fight with your gun
Or they could leave your head hung.
Don't give them a small chance
to cut your quiet tongue.
