The Innocent Mafioso - 2

Waiting for me next day 
in the bar,
In the biz of gangs 
they called him superstar!

I whips his crims
so he came for payback.
BAM! a bottle on my head 
he yelled "Welcome Back."

Blood on the floor
and on the pane,
Not a single cloth 
was left to stain!

Though they were more 
and single was I,
I proved a handful 
with a swollen eye!

Honkies flung me out
I crawled back at the door,
In stake to crush bones
I lead the score!

Czar behold me 
with his hawkish orb,
Stirred by my guts
he gave me a job!

My CV read my name
and subscript GANGSTER,
In race of gangs
I sped as a roadster!

I wasn't the reason 
for me being bad,
It was the world 
who made a beast from lad! 

The words of pride 
in my eyes they saw,
You don't owe me fear  
You owe me AWE!

                            Dedicated To my friends............. Shivjeet & Jose for
Encouraging me!
