Why Can't I?

You can’t defeat me! You can’t stop my crimes! I’ll someday get it right, you see, I’ll even do it speaking rhymes. I can rob a bank. I can end it all. Your hero powers have been shrank - Or is it shrunk? I can’t recall. That’s besides the point. I’ll still win this day. I’m so sorry to disappoint, This will be your demise, I say! Why destroy, you ask? I don’t really know. I haven’t had a tragic past. I guess it’s fun to be your foe. It is a pleasure To rob this here vault. I do not need all that treasure, But I do need the extra…salt! Yes, you are a salty, That’s what makes this fun! I love this strife and your faulty Attempts to stop what I have done. But you can’t win me! You can’t stop my crimes! This time I got it right, you see, And I did this while speaking rhymes!
