As one of them the crest is worn on the outside. The badge is black and white, two stripes and then I said goodbye. I did the splits and I kicked from the wall to the other wall. There were no tricks just training from the guys who knew it all. And this is how it used to be. I promised to be the best that I could be. It wasn't hard to say no to fighting in the schoolyard. I could've fought them to stay away. With my knife hands I'd seize the day. You can come in first; you can come in last. Starting slow can be curse or teach you how to laugh. When we went outside it wasn't like it was before. The street signs stayed the same but I'm too scared to walk through the doors. Wasn't this the place I loved? My home, I'm pretty sure it was. Eventually time and space will take it all away from us. And I didn't fight them to stay away. I didn't know that my knife hands weren't here to stay. I never came first; never came in last. Starting slow can be a curse or teach how to laugh. To know how to grow takes some time so take all of the time and put it in your belly. Don't let the Demons take you away. I should've fought them to stay away. With my knife hands I'd save the day. You can be a nurse; I’ll be a giraffe. Living on earth can be a curse or teach you how to laugh.
