King Hit

King Hit has come out swinging,
He feels like he’s been pinging,
Above it all and invincible,
That’s what he thinks, too cool for school.
King Hit has impacted my head,
Contrecoup inflicts on my brain,
I feel as though I am dead,
As the blood goes down the drain.
King Hit will feel his world rock,
As my friends watch in silence and shock,
Has alcohol or drugs impacted his brain,
Doesn’t matter, because loved ones only feel pain.
King Hit is an issue for all,
When alpha males hear their call,
The mentality is hit or run,
When everyone just wants to be out to have fun.
King Hit is not the answer anymore.
