Persona Non Grata
I am the one you blacklist
The one so quickly dismissed
My being, untoward
No hatred unexplored
Discarded, cast aside
All anger magnified
This is my emancipation
Cut the tumor buried deep inside
Your voice brings me to rage
I can't stand the thought of you
Persona non grata
Repay my faith misguided
This falling house divided
My words you disavow
Verbal shots across my bow
Cannon fodder I'll be no more
Enemy now at your door
This is my emancipation
My silence now becomes a roar
Your voice brings me to rage
I can't stand the sight of you
Persona non grata
I've been the downcast
I've took the blame
For all the shit you've laid on me
You put me dead last
Defile my name
To bring me to my knees
I will rise up and drop you out
Revolution under way
I buy your silence
Paid for in violence
This is my Independence Day
Your voice brings me to rage
I can't stand the thought of you
Discord is my true reward
I detest you
I protest you
I've obsessed you
You require me
You retire me
You rewire me
I walk away unsoiled
My revenge uncoiled
The one you so despised
Now one not recognized
Here I stand, tower above you
Under foot, I think not of you
This is my emancipation
Living in a world devoid of you
Your voice brings me to rage
I can't stand the sight of you
Persona non grata
Persona non grata
Persona non grata
The one so quickly dismissed
My being, untoward
No hatred unexplored
Discarded, cast aside
All anger magnified
This is my emancipation
Cut the tumor buried deep inside
Your voice brings me to rage
I can't stand the thought of you
Persona non grata
Repay my faith misguided
This falling house divided
My words you disavow
Verbal shots across my bow
Cannon fodder I'll be no more
Enemy now at your door
This is my emancipation
My silence now becomes a roar
Your voice brings me to rage
I can't stand the sight of you
Persona non grata
I've been the downcast
I've took the blame
For all the shit you've laid on me
You put me dead last
Defile my name
To bring me to my knees
I will rise up and drop you out
Revolution under way
I buy your silence
Paid for in violence
This is my Independence Day
Your voice brings me to rage
I can't stand the thought of you
Discord is my true reward
I detest you
I protest you
I've obsessed you
You require me
You retire me
You rewire me
I walk away unsoiled
My revenge uncoiled
The one you so despised
Now one not recognized
Here I stand, tower above you
Under foot, I think not of you
This is my emancipation
Living in a world devoid of you
Your voice brings me to rage
I can't stand the sight of you
Persona non grata
Persona non grata
Persona non grata
