Screw structure I'm going to spew out of my mouth freely with mostly conjecture Combine a mental picture with this phenomenal tincture To create the miracle elixir A ticket to your own prefecture in the land of dreams After what will sound like a four hour lecture The story of a specter that existed but was never known Here comes the first chapter Rapture, finally gave birth but she wasn't happy to meet her son Because having him in there must have really hurt Left as soon as she could stand but didn't bother naming him Would have been fine with leaving him in the dirt A nurse took pity and raised him till he was three But eventually she couldn't keep up with the fees One abusive foster family to the next, no rest in between They would adopt him lock doors and throw away keys Cursed with immense intellect by the time he was six Attracting envy and getting pelted with bricks Can't catch a break at eight Betting he'd get beat up any day was like betting on who can beat the Knicks At the age of ten found his profound ability to take things apart And put them back together again Around about then everyone was convinced he would grow up To be among the worlds most psychopathic men Fast forward four years of horrific caretakers To when he's finally thrown into the looney bin Surrounded by crazy round the clock but he stayed calm and collected The doc found it baffling Another four of growing more intelligent at which point It's concluded that he must be malevolent And so he ends up in a facility housing the criminally insane And actually malignant This was essentially prison, these fiends were here for life And formed small cliques and gangs Mostly made up of savages that got caught red handed Then plead insanity to hide their fangs Got approached about a month in Said he wasn't interested only to get stabbed four times with a fork Had to stitch himself up because when he went to the infirmary He got sown up by an incompetent dork Not long after that He figured out the intricacies of how you got to watch your own back Eventually he learned, tables got turned Hits you with the stutter step, lights out, fade to black Unfortunately he didn't see the orderly that first walked by Then took him by surprise Can't do much to a freak in disguise so he couldn't really retaliate Just escape, anyway let's take five He did the math on it, another twenty years here And he probably wouldn't be out even at forty two Got to break out before twenty two with a clean scheme He'd be gone for weeks before anyone knew Made queries in a single night to test and confirm theories Because he didn't want to get caught acting a fool If he follows his own rules the whole ruse would go perfectly All that was left to do was press execute And now that he's finally free he had to quickly figure out How to bank roll his own survival As a quick study the quick buck came easy Pulling off odd jobs to get his hands on what's vital But mean streets operate on a hood bible And he needed something concrete to put food on tables Became a mechanic, learnt to paint houses And do his own carpentry, this sort of thing has lots of labels Didn't enjoy it but he essentially became the best From the very beginning when he chose his own hits Pulled off a job in Malakoff with nothing but two toothpicks A pair of oven mitts and use of his wits A decision was made in the organization That he'd gone from being an asset to an imminent threat They needed the next best, a retired femme fatale That wasn't interested because she already paid off her debt All she wanted to do was care for her daughter Who they kidnapped in order to coerce her So she got strapped and set up her signature fatal trap To ensure his demise, the execution cleaver A firefight ensued, shell casings flew They both ran out of bullets on queue, she yelled it isn't personal Told him about her daughter and he said I wish my mother was like you And didn't leave me nameless at a hospital Realized this is the child she left right out the gate Considered telling him but wondered if he'd get filled with hate Forgot the death wire that sealed fate His last words were let's save your girl, but her reaction was too late
