In this world today,
Death comes unexpected
From illnesses everywhere
And killers who are demented
But there’s one killer
you often disregard
It’s the silent killer,
The one that strikes hard
His name is Anger,
And he lives in everyone
He lives inside us
So there’s no way we can run
At first, you’ll think
That this emotion is harmless
The hype it causes
Sometimes we even harness
But this little devil
is a tricky troll
He eats your insides till you
Lose your control
He made kings lose their kingdoms
Husbands lose their wives
And made good men end fights
Through guns, swords and knives
He slaughtered thousands
Caused nations to fall,
He burned down bridges
And instead built a wall
He divided the united,
He turned friends into foes,
He caused all kinds of trouble
Tragedies and woes
So you better be careful
Before he comes for you
For he spreads faster
Than the cold or the flu
Always be calm
Dont let your sight turn to red
Have patience and humility
Before ‘Anger’ gets your head.
