I\u2019ve tried being peaceful
\nand cooing my song.
\nBut this shit\u2019s untenable;
\nit\u2019s gone on far too long.<\/p>\n
So I\u2019m giving up peace and
\ngoing on the attack.
\nAll you privileged white men
\nhad best watch your backs!<\/p>\n
My wingspan is strong
\nand will bring winds of change
\nmy talons are sharp and can
\ninflict great pain.<\/p>\n
What once was a coo,
\nnow emits as a roar.
\nI\u2019ve warned you,
\nI really can\u2019t take any more.<\/p>\n
You\u2019d better get moving
\nbecause I\u2019m coming for you.
\nAnd when I catch up there won\u2019t be much
\nyou can do.<\/p>\n
But lie there and whimper
\nas you get what you deserve.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s no peace left in me.
\nI\u2019m now a warrior bird.<\/p>\n
