I Will Defend: Stand up for yourself and others

Billy is a bully and
He’s really trying to pull me
Into a confrontation
That will land me in detention at my school
I feel the need to mention
That the tension just cemented
My intention to take action
And cause a slight infraction of the rules?

My parents told me not to fight
They also said to “do what’s right”
And someone has to stand up to this bully
And show him the light
He’s pushing little kids around
Knocking them right to the ground
And there is no adult around
To settle everybody down right

I will defend the small
I will defend the weak
I will take the bully’s punches
I will defend the young
I will defend the meek
Now give them back their lunches
Leave the kids alone

I know that I should walk away
But this is real this is not play
So I will stay and do my best
To make this bully take a rest…
From putting down and posturing
Punching, poking, punishing
Pushing, hitting, puncturing
Shouting, spitting, pummeling and yes…

I stood up to him and got knocked down
He shoved my face into the ground
Now my mouth is full of dirt
My pride is hurt but it could be worse
A teacher saw me start the fight
I guess it wasn’t very bright
But I would do it all again
And gladly do my time in detention
