I’ve been keeping all this bottled up inside
something bout our team that just aint right
but now its gotten to a point that I just cant hide
the bottles overflowing and the cap wont stay tight
nice people turned debaters gone awry
I can’t get the insults off my mind
Used to shrug it off with a sigh
But the sad images are always within sight
Camaraderie turned bitter combat
civil wars against our own kind
now we wonder, who would've done that?
the culprit turns out to be our own mind
its about time
that we stop this crime
against our own kind
so we shall find
that if the hate disappears
it will evaporate our fears
confidence will prevail
leaving other schools to wail
criticizing is of no avail
so come to realize that after bitter battles
losses are only sure to follow
that putting our skills down
makes us stutter in rounds
but the real loss is that of respect for ourselves
the only real win, it would seem
is that over someone else’s self esteem
so be nice
