Prod me, poke me, Torment me if you dare. But push things too far And you move within my lair.
For though I may be patient, And take things on the chin, It would seem I have a dark side... Hidden deep within.
A side that stands up for me, For others and for what is right. A side powered by passion, A side not afraid to fight.
I don't like being angry And avoid it where I can. I do my best to trust And believe my fellow man.
If though you should wrong me And release my inner steel, Then at you I will whirl Till at my feet you kneel.
I won't do it with fists Or shout and scream and cry. No I will use my intellect And expose your every lie.
So if you plan to use me. Or refuse to do your share... Go ahead I dare you, But of the beast... beware!
