Poison or fruit: you choose.

Kill me if you wish

Crush me if you choose

Fill my cup with acid

My skull under your shoes

 

Shoot me with your bullets

and the fire in your eyes

The words you use as poison

crush me down to size

 

Drag me to your dirt room

Leave me there for dead

But someone else will use their voice

to build me up instead.
