You thought you would put me in my place But I will not stay in this space How dare you make an attempt to silence my voice? Have you no shame in the dealings you scored at the expense of those whose heads you utilized as puddle blockers? Your mistake was to think you silenced me, You see, I am aware of my right to speak my mind without the fear of being taken out by a puppeteer. Because my views were never sponsored nor was my approach doctored…

Come to think of it, what made you think you’d keep me chained to the walls built with the shame of those who continue to sell out? You thought you’d keep me small and meek…That my ink would run dry, and my pen would disappear? That I’d be driven into a state of unawareness due to a fear, You constantly tried to impose on to me? How dumb of you, I was never your toy to play with to begin with.
Refrain from trying to place me in spaces that are solely created to silence my voice, it’ll backfire.
