The price of the worldwide peace
that we have already missed
will absolutely be long term paybacks
Whispers in my head I hear it all so clearly
Negativity in my brain bordering on weary
Enemy caught me when I was very weak
Tortured me for the treasure that they sought to seek
Vigil I remained though I admit that they were close
To destroying what I had that was saving me the most
Then I remember in that moment that I am stronger than I think
So I started focusing on the other side of the chain link
It keeps me strong it keeps me sane
It keeps me going it keeps me trained
And so the enemy caught me but I got out of their trap
Now I know where they're hiding I got them marked on my map
You'd think that I'd call out the troops and take them by seige
Arrest them detain them and make them my liege
Treat them like dirt torture and maim
Paybacks a and all for my pain
But thats not how I roll for if I did I'd be them
Blood on my hands brazen in sin.
Once upon a time, lived there a man
With anchored bed riding on waters still
But in surprise, wakes oft to troubled seas.
Pulled in and out by waves sudden and hard
He wakes oft with weary temper-stained hands.
Can only recall how he roared loudly
In a dream of the night with scenes groggy.
Now with scared heads bowed and hidden cuffed hands.
Other times he wakes with both eyes stolen
And legs in fierce chase of the next delight.
Climbing hoops and coins, then meets an endless height.
Sorry shadows then trail his feet swollen.
Other days, he wakes up to meet new weights
A brooding list of paybacks to be done.
This man like a skillful snake lies in wait
But suffers even more after the dealt struck.
Such sad lot just from him closing his eyes.
Only if he saw this shared dancing blue.
Only if he had the strength still to choose
Then he would have smiled as he opened his eyes.
THE DRAMA
THE PAIN
THE HURT
NO MORE
CALLING OF THE NAMES
THE PAYBACKS
WHAT A SHAME
NO MORE NEGATIVITY
LET THE POSITIVITY FLOW IN THE ROOM
LET THE POSITIVITY FLOW IN THE ATMOSPHERE
SURROUNDED WITH LOVE, PEACE, JOY
NO MORE
SMILES AND ALL CHEERS
MORE WISDOM AND WISER
NO TIME FOR SILENT AND SECRETIVE HURTS.
Where is the love?
The hate is always there
Giving signs
Like, "Oh beware"
I have sense
I know there's no care
Just there only to share
Too many signs
Overtaken by guilt
Trying to be all slick
I pray for the hurts
Treated like dirt
I forgive, for I shall live.
No matter what the situation
Time passes by
Leave or stay
The relationships a lie.
I am free
Gone to another phase
Do you believe that I'm in a daze?
Think again, Don't be amazed
On my own
For I will be gone.
Not looking back
untraceable tracks
All of the miserable attacks
Just unknown paybacks
From the past held in
To be mended
Trying to destroy me
Won't work, now I see.
Cannot wait until this journey ends
Running fast from the Lion's den
A new life begins
To better days
Not here to stay
Thanking God I'm on my way.
The Signs are given in so many ways
every day, I must always pray.
One of those days wouldn’t wish on anyone’s prey
My mother-in-law she did stay
Not a person you would want for a fun day
She came up to the trays
Stood by the buffet
And conveyed,
“This buffet is going to my place
and the one in my home will replace”
An unwanted guest she always makes my days gray
I would one of these days love to just say “ Shoo fly, don’t bother me”
Puzzled; everyone looked at me than back at her
Everyone knew she’d made the offer before
And that I had turned her down and made her sore.
I didn’t ignore, I implored,
“Now, I told you before no way!”
She looked at me, twist and bends out of her normal shape
A dragon transformed, but held her breath
Paybacks or hell when a dragon transformed
To see a display of fireworks next time we play
May then I can say “ Shoo fly, don’t bother me”

True story
Well and Paybacks are hell aren't they
But you can't say you didn't have it
Coming...
Respect me and I'll respect you
Disrespect me and I'll disrespect you
It works both ways...
Don’t make it harder on yourself now than
Than it has to be...check your facts
Before you go and make yourself look like
A jackass, but you are never wrong are you?
Well I swear you are a royal pain in the ass
But hey Paybacks Are Hell aren't they and
You can't say you didn't have it coming...
So here’s an eye for an eye as they say
Karma’s a ***** and it cuts both ways...
Respect me and I'll respect you....
Disrespect me and I'll disrespect you...
Paybacks Are Hell aren't they...?
Every direction I turn,
leads me down a dead end street.
My eyes are misleading, my heart misguiding,
I surrender to my defeat.
I am trapped in my own head,
I can't get out, it's like a maze.
Around one corner, then it leads me back to the beginning,
this goes on and on for days.
Escape if I could, I won't even try,
the price to pay would be to steep.
Paybacks they come at double the price,
for sure my life he would keep.
Locked away, protected from the pain,
it's too much for me to bare.
such foolish words you speak,
with such a nasty glare!
We sit home alone no rules, no regulations.
What comes, it's what's done.
I kiss you kiss no need for paybacks.
It flows like a stream.
You dream I dream, we dream together.
I finish your thoughts and you finish mine.
Together our worlds combine.
Up in his branches?
Down in his toes?
Where's his brain hidin'?
Nobody knows.
You cut him, he bleeds
You chop him, he dies
You burn him, he crumbles
You tease him, he cries.
Whatever would cause you
to laugh at a tree?
Do you know he could mush you,
Insignificant flea?
Perhaps he can't run,
Perhaps he can't walk,
Perhaps he can't sing,
Perhaps he can't talk.
But he hears all you say,
And he sees all you do,
And it angers him greatly,
To be laughed at by you.
You may think he's funny,
You may think he's cute,
You may think he's ugly
And stupid to boot.
But that is no reason
To doubt its not true.
In more ways than one
He's exactly like you.
He knows about sadness,
He knows about pain,
He's cried in the sunshine,
And laughed in the rain.
But tease if you have to
And mock them as well,
Just remember they see you,
And paybacks are hell.
