That Which Wasn't There

Feedback Received!

That which wasn’t there

I’m remembered for my mistakes

I won’t be allowed to live them down for sinners sakes

I can’t do anything right in anyone’s eyes

All I am is a ball of anger with words sharp as knives

I was born a lie therefore I live among lies

To me it is no big surprise

People hate me for who I am

They want me to change for the betterment of man

What has man done for me lately?

Except ridicule, despise, and truly hate me?

You don’t like what you see?

Goodbye, there’s the door, now let me be.

I will not succumb, I will not keep it under control

I am the way God made me, When He was done He broke the mold

If you have a problem with His design my friend

Feel free to fill out a complaint form if you can comprehend

But I’m just fine in the skin my soul is within

And my attitude can be quite volatilely vexing

I’m not violent, but i’m looking for a reason to fight

Been needing my ass kicked all mother lovin night

You think you might be tough enough son?

Come on and lets knock my head off for fun

And I’ll keep rising like the walking dead

Lets see how far we can rotate your head.

And there goes another poser

Running scared like a canadian hoser

Will the next contestant please come to the ring

The audience is bored, they have started snoring

Is there no one left to take on the champ?

That’s good because my face was beginning to cramp.

I can’t keep up the charades

I’ve done been played out in spades

I’m just going to fade into the background here

Because nobody cares about that which wasn’t there.
