Our Brand Is CrisisA Poem by ghaw2007Our Brand Is Crisis Verse 1 If you're caught in a bind And you want to get out Give us a call and we'll come flying to you We'll brainstorm to construct a well-crafted narrative Put it in the papers and make it go viral The masses will chew on whatever we deliver to their homes Most will be satisfied and beg for more We're able to unravel multiple distractions and disorders Like juggling balls with our eyes closed Without the use of magic Without relying on luck The fruits of our labour will nourish a nation Verse 2 If you're low with no place to go We'll put on a show to captivate an audience With an invisible hand, we'll scratch your back Just as long as we're well-compensated When you give, you take more than what's expected Like a thief in the night You're unheard and unseen If you're ratted out or threatened with exposure Donate to charity to increase your popularity The great and the small will all bow at your feet They'll kiss the ring while biting their tongues You won't be castigated You won't be stripped bare Your name and words will act as sword and shield Verse 3 Two sides of a coin Both ends of a spectrum Unbeknownst to our opponents The decks are stacked in our favour When solutions are needed to disputes and dilemmas Knowing we'll be victorious, we'll offer as many This is not a game This is a way of life When groomed to be successful Failure is not an option Our echoes linger in your dreams Our visions blend into your shadows All that we create is reflected in you Scrub your skin and detox your organs We've made plans for you And you'll serve us very well Chorus Our brand is crisis / What we live and what we breathe / The fire burning in us / And consuming all that we touch / We're exceptional at what we do / That's why they call us professionals / Being on top is the sole position we aspire to Written by B.
