‘cause what if you had to look in the mirror and see the shadow of a liar
the presence of truth buried under a poorly stitched attire
the silence you impose on those who show you a flame of the fire you have created
You’ve made such an effort to conspire against those who hold the fire to your face
you can’t stand the heat so you’d rather cheat
accountability is a word you never learned
for you’d rather gaslight than get burned
but lighting a fire isn’t like putting on your attire
you can’t take it off when it pleases you
Some fires burn brighter and higher than others
and one day you’ll have to walk through it
or let it consume you.
