Saftey Net

If you can’t kill them with kindness, then force feed them food If they can’t see past your blindness, then they aren’t any good Please remember dear child their opinion’s carry weight And permissions are granted, if they have lost all the hate Fortunes of gold are often lost or misplaced Because thieves are forgetful when their running away Our waste pits that make us cringe from disgust Are creating some geniuses that you still will not trust The world is your safe house, your private refuge But it is really awful when it is being misused I will speak of the geniuses for a moment if I may This land is their heritage, and they will own it some day So remember the rules you learned while in your youth And if your gonna be mean please don’t be uncouth And if you decide implementation your thing Never forget the corpse you must bring Prove its been done and finally worked And welcome to the life of the really berserk The world is your safe house, your private refuge But it is really awful when its being misused And of the gold that's been lost or misplaced The thief will keep looking unless the memories erased Its something to think about while in their cage It occupies the mind and quells the rage Perhaps your aware then of the crimes we commit How we stifle the errors and find posts we can hit So along your route in your quest for a life Find you a haven with minimal strife The world is your safe house, your private refuge But its really awful if its being misused Please keep in mind that you cant feed the dead So remember your training and don’t lose your head Gather your tools, and all the skill that you need Then distance yourself from those filled with greed Hold out your hand to the net runner up Be gracious and kind but never give up And the last adage before I sign my name Make sure if you win you read the rules to the game
