My Own Killer Demon

This is symbolically about a demon that comes with many faces. this demon was first not my own.

Before you even knew my name.
I put you on the ground in shame.
By the time I had you beat.
I was then a pawn in your deadly game.
I'm going for the throat this time.
I will put you down again.
I'm too strong.  You'll never win.
I'm too smart.  You'll never win.
You think he's slow?
Oh, he's on your tail.
You think you'll win?
You were born to fail.
Nothing else can scare me.
I'm rapped in razor wire.
Nothing else will shake me.
It is time to eat the fire.
