Return To Get You

You can manipulate a man
isolate a mate 
outnumber one
slander for the upper hand 
and corrupt a life right up

many will go silent
no violence or fight
rebuild or accept life 
never bring it to light

but occasionally honour breeds
a mind built to compete
seeing the battle a defeat 
and through their retreat 
rise back to feet 

the war with the monster you made stronger
will rage until you're exposed and a goner!! 

Get sacked or sued 
who knows what he'll do 
just remember he told you
"one day I'll get you"

Years later 
fear frustrates ya
