I am an angel of darkness
 Abhorrent to those who are frail
 The strength inside me is my will to believe
 In myself, with no self-betrayal
 My force is my own preservation
 My destiny mine to control
 I don't live my life to be judged by anyone
 Surviving intact is my role 

 Lost time is never found again
 Screaming through my life of speed--insanity, mach ten
 I utilize the life I've been given
 Or else it's as if I've never been 

 I take pains to make my presence known
 If it's a negative impression then I'll take the blame alone
 I have no regrets and I call my life my own
 I have no time for the words left in stone 

 I acknowledge only one thing;
 My own authority
 Answering to no one, I leave no trace of pity
 My [bad word] my life
 I can't help what you are
 For this I won't apologize
 Because I leave scars!!
 I promise you agony
 If you attempt to intervene
 Just pay attention to yourself, you're barely existing
 I'm thriving on the life I lead
 veteran of human wars
 For this I won't apologize...
 Because I leave scars!! 

 I practice angelic darkness
 My convictions keep wolves from my door
 I know what it means to have someone tamper with my dreams
 Deflowering my essence, my core
 I once sought no recrimination
 But now I seek the price be paid
 Forever wary, always guarded against anyone
 Who's mistaken me for easy prey 

 Defeatist attitudes are only in vain
 As you wonder of my species--must I really be explained?
 Realize now that I'm ingrained
 Knowingly, forever on your brain 

 Nemeses falter in their plebian ways 
 Employing methods to usurp my reign, my inner maze
 Seeking clues to uncover the clever turn of phrase
 Salient words are found amidst the haze 

 I acknowledge only one thing;
 My own authority
 Answering to no one, leave no trace of pity
 My [bad word] my life
 I can't help what you are
 For this I won't apologize
 Because I leave scars!!
 I promise you agony
 If you attempt to intervene
 Just pay attention to yourself, you're barely existing
 I'm thriving on the life I lead
 veteran of human wars
 For this I won't apologize
 Because I leave scars!! 

 mercenary I may be, I tend to feel I'm not
 My only need is to maintain my lot
 I have a lust for life that stands to be my legacy
 I'm proud to say, "with my life, I am free" 

 To leave a mark, necessity, my memory redeemed
 I suffer not from lack of self-esteem
 Someday my confidence will be a mass contagion
 I assure you this is no self-exaltation 

 I cicatrize myself upon your mind
 You won't forget my actions as you will find 

 I'm lord and master
 Of my own future!! 

 I am the darkest of angels!!
 Indomitable in my will to succeed
 I have a goal to ascertain
 Entrenching myself upon your brain
 These words I've bled upon this page 
 [bad word] from inside, how quickly I've aged
 My innocence has died and was buried long ago
 Eternally joined with a part of my soul 

 The weak of heart need not apply
 I admit they're not for all--my caffeinated ways of life
 Those who oppose me will end in bitter strife
 Defacing human minds until I die 

 Those with open minds will benefit from my vows
 self-betrothal where I pay no heed to sacred cows
 Further discussion time will not allow
 Until we meet I'll take my bow 

 And remember... 

 I acknowledge only one thing;
 My own authority
 Answering to no one, leave no trace of pity
 My [bad word] my life
 I can't help what you are
 For this I won't apologize
 Because I leave scars!!
 I promise you agony
 If you attempt to intervene 
 Just pay attenti
