Return of the Savage
Welcome to my words and my madness
I've had my turn in the sadness
I got knocked down and was almost counted out
But now I'm back this is the return of the savage
My words will jump off the page like this is poetical Jumanji but I'm not here to play games
Writers block had me hostage but I escaped and I'm back on my A-game
I've recovered from my fall and finally have my wings to fly
Never will I allow anyone to white out anything I write
I'll drown with the sharks before I allow my poetry to be watered down
2 dates tonight, I'm taking the meat eater to a vegan restaurant and the vegan to a slaughterhouse
I'm just saying that for the sake of saying it
The pain transformed me into a lion you shouldn't be playing with
I'm not here to be political, but you want to know my thoughts on Donald Trump?
The way I'd describe him is how Gordon Ramsey would describe a McDonald's lunch
I was close to winning, but I was robbed of victory like Tyson Fury against Doentay
But I got back up and people will see my true potential one day
I made it through the storms and the winds
Scars that didn't fully heal formed into my skin
You judge me for them but don't realise how strong they make me
I'm the white Mike Tyson and depression made a mistake when it faced me
This is my words and my madness
I had my turn in the sadness
I got up before I was counted out
This is the return of the savage
