I am Blackbeard
I am feared and fearless
I wonder what ship I will ambush next
I hear waves crashing along the North Carolina shore
I see water for miles and miles from Queen Anne’s Revenge
I want treasure, pieces of eight, emeralds, and a chest of medicine from the Governor of Charleston
I am feared and fearless
I pretend to be nice to other ships in order to capture them
I feel powerful when I look so mean that others run in fear
I touch my pistol and cutlass as I prepare for an ambush
I worry about nothing
I no longer go by Edward Teach, for that name is not scary enough
I am feared and fearless
I understand how ships work for I stole my first one
I say “nobody but the Devil and I know where my treasure is and the longest liver shall take it”
I dream of obtaining all the treasure along the Atlantic coast
I try to become the most feared and dreaded pirate of all time
I know my legend will live on forever since Lt. Maynard kept my head suspended from his sloop as a warning to other pirates
I am feared and fearless
I AM BLACKBEARD
