Would you believe me if I tell you
That I am a notorious criminal?
Someone who's fond of doing things that are illegal
I have lots of wrongdoings and crimes
And I love hearing my victims' criesI am a killer
And I already killed many times
But instead of precious lives
I kill every writers' reasons to writeI am a thief
Who will always bring mischief
I steal every inspiring poem and story
Of the writers who are in love with poetryI am an abductor
And I abduct attentions from readers
But my favorite target are their hearts
That once beat to the writers they love from the startBut would you believe me if I tell you
That I was once a writer, too?
I used to write and I want to inspire
But my journey ended when they conspired.Writers who are fake that became popular
They are the real criminals
Writers who only write for fame
That they're willing to put me in shameThey are the real killers
For they killed my dream as a writer
They are the real thiefs
For they stole my stories and left me in griefI once had their full love and attention
Until someone tainted my reputation
I became the center of humiliation
Just because of false accusation.I am the real innocent
But everyone treats me as the culprit
No one dared to believe me
Even my readers who used to be my familyNow, I became like them, too
A monster that I don't want to
But what can I do, right?
They made me lost the bright sideIn this world of words and poetry
I am a criminal with a heartless personality
Seeing the downfall of writers and poets
Became my one and only happiness.
