Can You See Me Now?

Setting out with a scythe to calm their hybris

All their stupid hopes will wither

I shall wake them from this dream

Oh, their murmuring tongues I will slither

And the world shall tremble at my feet

Oh their laughter

As my nervous grin was smacked from face

I thought that I deserved it

The mirror had already told me how deserving I was

Of abuse to body and mind

And so with time grew hate where love once resided

Years pass but a change won't surely come

You know that those who don't deserve it

They gnaw and they claw their way while

Always licking upwards and furiously kicking down

So what is status? It's a value standing firm

But I will be the hand of those whose faces you stepped upon

I am plotting with every breath I take life is at stake

And as your children shape themselves in your image

When they grow up to be just like you

And when they push the kid with the glasses

Face first in a puddle of mud

Will you secretly smile and think "that's my boy"?

One day you won't be so lucky

My only fear is to go by unnoticed

I demand you to see me this time

Therefore I long to be apprehended

And watch you closely as you learn it was always I
