BlackSheep from LongShot by Pyrophoria

Black Sheep
Mind the teeth
The pitch black in me you wouldn’t keep
A back hearted Queen down deep
I weep
Uphill is steep
Talk is cheap
You get what you reap if you count it to sleep
Sow yourself in the ground
In a dream aloud
Love won’t abound
You get kicked down
An outcast all around
Was I found
Bring the hound

I was born and raised in the south
They didn’t like my mouth
For days I went without an ounce
of sleep in the old house
For my screams and the bad dreams
The light cut out
Counting black sheep and thunder clouds

I am a villain misunderstood
The Wolf came and left with a hood
How do you know if you’re good
High above me in the sky, a redwood stood
Because it could

I am something you cannot tame
Shears for shame, who to blame, I’m not the same as in the frame, I flame, I reclaim, no name, they came,
Child’s play or over game
I’m insane, you’re the bane, wax and wane, the cracks and rain, all blacks and pain, in vain, I feign, to unchain, myself like it does not contain, a wound’s cellophane
I jump the train
Please refrain, from plain disdain
Hate me like you were inhumane

Scape goat more like sheep in exile
Hate me until you forget after while
I pick up the phone but I don’t dial
I went astray like it was ok to be wild
Shepard looked at me but not to smile
I didn’t get a trial

I am a sore thumb but numb, they are struck dumb, out I come, with an outcome, alone I hear the hum of silence like my drum, the girl that came from some sort of slum, the girl with a handgun who could outrun, was not done, in fact
She won
