Fight Back
Music & Sound
Slip away silently my dear.
Don't let them drag you,
Kicking and screaming,
Fighting and wanting and lacking. You are whole.
No matter how many pieces they left you in.
Shattered and scattered.
Unwanted in your profanity.
In your indecency.
Disregarded.
An enemy of the state.
The state in which they found you, loved you, held you,
Time and again.
But wait.
Wait for them to be ready..
Ready for the hunt.
Until they catch you, grasp you, reveal your fate.
No longer worthy of the chase,
Of the love or the hate.
But. Again you will wait.
Not this time sweet petal.
No. Fight back.
Bite and scratch.
Give back the plate.
The plate that you were served, ordered, too little, too late.
No. Not this time.
No. Fight back.
Be better, be braver, and stronger, and bare and raw.
Show them the mightiness, pick yourself up off the floor.
Reveal the power and glory they never knew,
That brilliant, light. That is You.
