DEFENDER'S RAP

• //Verse 1
• My name is Covid, I’m 19 years old
• I’m big for my age, killed the mighty and bold
• Some hide from me and resort to talkin on the phone
• Others try and embrace me when I wanna be alone
• I’m travelin the world, a psychologist in trainin
• But I’m stuck starin at the walls talkin to the paintings
• Why is it that I’m only poppin when they hate me?
• I’ll be there when you give that poisoned bottle to ya baby
• To keep me runnin, some resort to violence then to death
• Others say I can’t affect em but decline my friend requests
• An epidemic in the flesh, a menace, you were thinkin
• Never felt the caress of another human being
• My relationship status is contagious, it’s tragic
• It’s complicated, measures that they takin are drastic
• To keep me in the image of an isolated incel
• And I just wrote a card to myself sayin “Get well!”
• //Verse 2
• I am the puppet, I’m 16 years old
• Just wanna be here to see these children grow old
• I ain’t gonna rap a song bout stayin home and jackin off
• I’m only tacklin problems that these grown adults are not
• This nation is at war reaper waitin at the door
• Those who ain’t wearin masks hide their faces even more
• I know it’s hurtin us all below the surface
• I’m startin to question what makes each of us a person
• Is it a hearse and some flowers on a grave?
• Or is the worth in our birth and how we spend our days?
• Is it plowin away or spendin time with the ones we love?
• And should we act tough or sweeter than a buttercup?
• Why does it take an apocalypse?
• To cause all this shit and expose our prerogatives
• They tryna protect us we call it evil
• Virus or not we all sick people
