live by the sword, die by the sword,
but the karma is a bitch
an eye for an eye, but
to do others as you'd like others do unto you
I had practice the way of the sword,
stabbed and smacking others
with keen words and sharp silences
I thought I had eliminated them
out of my life to face consequences
but the karma is a bitch
and I face torrential flood of silence
and rain of sharp swords
as I kneel down bleeding
from thousands of cuts
thoughts I saw clearer than others
see further into the future
deeper into the soul
but now a sniper has gotten me
haven't I heard the phrase before?
do to others, as you want others do unto you?
have I been deaf? have I been blind?
yet why do I find myself at the shelf
of judgement, penalized for all I've done?
ah
now is the time for silence
and face the consequence
and pray for a providence.
