°-- UGH!

Here comes again the crackling flame of hate,
Ready to explode even without
The help of additional fuel
You know it's going to spread far and wide

(sarcastically) Here comes
The first keyboard warrior
It starts to drum a hateful message into others,
Making the victim a public punching bag,

Tap, tap (keyboard), it stokes the fire
Without provocation, tap, tap
If the victim doesn't bite,
It takes the issue to the whole Internet
(in the online sphere) There's no distinction
Between the truth and lie
Here, everyone's a never-wrong pundit
With utmost moral probity,
LOL

All rage is not the same
Look deep into our shared history;
Anger against injustice and inequality
Have often positively advanced our civilization
But, this (senseless online rage) ain't it
It's just a useless act
That defiles the whole world
Have any idea what anger is, you know?

Because of your senseless rage,
You've destroyed the concept of good anger,
Now, many people are desensitized to all anger
(Both good and bad)

Your anger is not only affecting me (BTS)
We're now impervious to your filth,
But others are not so lucky
What about those who simply
Don't give a damn about cyberbullying?

Those with senseless rage and those who are apathetic:
You are both menaces to society

I'm mad
I'm incensed that toxic rages have ruined
The good anger from ever catching fire

I'm incensed at these toxic rages
That should have been extinguished much earlier

(to keyboard warriors) Go ahead, be mad
Be mad till the fire of anger consumes you
Go ahead, be mad
Be made till your anger destroys you

The current world has been
Taken over by unproductive anger
It's as if people can't function without it
They get angry at anything and everything
And that has driven them insane
Because different motivations trigger rage,
We can no longer distinguish
Between the good and toxic anger

I'm not telling you never to be angry
What I don't like
Are the poisonous rages that hurt other people
You must stop that, aay
Your display of feelings can harm someone else
Your verbal expression can devastate someone else
Your momentary action can leave
A lasting scar for someone else
Your rage can take away someone else's life

I'm mad
I'm incensed at the toxic, senseless rages
That should have been extinguished much earlier

(in the voice of keyboard warriors)
You get some flak, so what?
You make a lot of money, so stop whining
You're a fair game since you're a celeb, ahem
Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem

You people (BTS), ahem,
If you make me a celeb, I'll gladly receive all flak
You people (BTS), ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem
You should just make me a celeb,
Ahem, b-hem, ahem

(to keyboard warriors) Go ahead, be mad
Be mad till the fire of anger consumes you
Go ahead, be mad
Be made till your anger destroys you
